Boot partition

I used fdisk to make some new partitions and mkfs.ext3 to make files on the partitions and now I have 4 partitions with file systems and /dev/sda6 is the boot partition. So I started with this boot and used this method.

First mount /dev/sda6 to /fc4, an empty location. That done I went to /boot and there I typed # cp -a * /fc4 and it finished fast and when I checked /fc4 it was a perfect copy of /boot. So then umount /fc4.

   The started grub and used:

   grub root (hd0,5)

   grub setup (hd0)

   grub quit

I left /boot in case of trouble and re-booted. To my satisfaction it did boot exactly like it did before. So now I have a boot partition as desired.

Next step is to move /home to /dev/sda7 and /usr to /dev/sda8. This will then be the way I will like it for now.
