Is that correct? When I had just copied the files from the DVD install disk I burned, when I was prompted for a device I would put /dev/hda1 and then for a directory I would put the directory info but it always said something like that it could not find the directory and it would append "/tmp/hddrive" to the directory info I gave (I don't remember exactly except for /tmp).
