magic f-drive on 160 gig
Posted: Tue Aug 03, 2004 5:06 am
ok i think i crapped out my current gentoox install. i'm going to start over, and then run
magic fix xfce && magic
this is what i did last night, and it updated tons of stuff
it downloaded like 22 packages or somthing and took like 8 hours or so.
so i messed up try to do
magic f-drive
my question is, was it becuase when i did that i was not root ?
was it because i am using a 160 gig hd ?
or was it because i did not mount f ?
anyways, i want too get rootfs on f:
then i think i'm going to take all my linux files on my e and burn them to a cd, and maybe even rar my rootfs file into 3 pieces and put them on cds.
then i guess it will beat 8 hours of running magic if i mess up right ? just ftp the files after unrar'ing them from my mac...
does that make sense ? do you think it would work ?
can anyone give me some step by step help here to get to that.
i just need how to do the magic f-drive
