Description SigHunter 2022-06-25 12:02:24 UTC
On this handbook site
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Installation/System

in the 2 fstab examples, 
"vfat" is written "Vfat" which does not work in /etc/fstab
as it must be vfat in lower case

not sure if this is maybe also the case on other handbook languages or architectures.

sorry, duplicate to https://bugs.gentoo.org/827815 
but please fix it, it's just about correcting 2 letters

sorry for the chaos, this bug report is actually just about the 2 wrong upper case letters in "Vfat" and not really a duplicate to bug 827815, therefore I reopened it. 

It's nothing more than correcting the upper case spelling in those 2 /etc/fstab examples at https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Installation/System

Vfat ==> vfat

Don't know if this is the best way to fix it, but I did... https://wiki.gentoo.org/index.php?title=Handbook:Parts/Installation/System&diff=1074224&oldid=1066382
