/swap
/boot

/var
/tmp
then i put the HDD back into my xbox and started Startdust Installer. i quit the Startdust installer by hitting Ctrl+c keys,
Stardust:>
so i begin the new installation with swapon /dev/hda1 with no errors, then i have create a new Gentoo directory, mkdir /mnt/gentoo, so where it fails is when i try to mount / in /mnt/gentoo..
Stardust:> mount /dev/hda3 /mnt/gentoo/
mount: Mounting /dev/hda3 on /mnt/gentoo failed: Invalid argument
