I followed cheesyboofs guide on full native install, and never got past the mounting and copying of rootfs.

I like GenooX, and really wanted to use it, but with it not being able to get it installed for several days, I decided to switch to Xebian. With Xebian, I was able to get my xbox configured with LAMP within a few hours. I am still using the GentooX RescooX cd as my boot loader :)

I formatted with "mke2fs -j"

I found where is blows up:

mkdir /mnt/hda2/usr/man && cp -a /mnt/loopback/usr/man/* /mnt/hda2/usr/man

mkdir /mnt/hda2/usr/share && cp -a /mnt/loopback/usr/share/* /mnt/hda2/usr/share

That will blow it up every time...

Dedicated GentooX?

I am wanting to make my xbox a dedicated gentoox system. I have installed GentooX into drive F, but would rather have the entire drive native (all mount points) and completely take out the xbox functionality. is there a way to remove all the C,E,F partitions and just have one big partition? Thanks, ...
