You are right, /boot is certainly not on the DVD, but this system thinks so anyway. And, I was wrong wrong in the heat of the moment. My 200 gig harddrive is on the same cable as the Dvd and it is listed as /sda2 by the The Logical (yeah right!) Volume Management App which says the harddrive is /dev/sda2 but every application for the Dvd complains that /dev/hda1 can't be found. /dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00 on / type ext3 (rw) proc on /proc type proc (rw) sysfs on /sys type sysfs (rw) devpts on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,gid=5,mode=620) /dev/sda1 on /boot type ext3 (rw) <---------------<<<<< tmpfs on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw) none on /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc type binfmt_misc (rw) sunrpc on /var/lib/nfs/rpc_pipefs type rpc_pipefs (rw) automount(pid1872) on /net type autofs (rw,fd=4,pgrp=1872,minproto=2,maxproto=4) [root@iam tmp]# -- ================================================ My father, Victor Moore (Vic) used to say: "There are two Great Sins in the world... ...the Sin of Ignorance, and ...the Sin of Stupidity.
