Description Vladimir Romanov (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2013-04-10 17:05:38 UTC
>> When prompted for the last cylinder, type +32M to create a partition 32 Mbyte in size and set its bootable flag:

I think, typing +32M is just to create a partition. It does nothing with bootable flag. We set it in next paragraph - (We need to make this partition bootable. Type a to toggle the...)

In next sentence
"If you press p again, you will notice that an * is placed in the "Boot" column. "

The "*" is marked as <path>*</path>. But... it isn't path. I think, it needs to be marked with <c>*</c>. Am i right?

Reproducible: Always

Thanks; i've corrected the sentence and moved the * inside <e>*</e>. It isn't a path, but not a user command or so either. But that's just formatting...
