Description David Danier 2006-03-04 09:46:24 UTC
In the config the param is named BOOTPART, in the init-script BOOTPATH (and BOOTPART in some echo's). I think this should be changed to BOOTPATH in both files.

I was able to manually partion the drive and run through the command line installer (at least so far, i've got past the privious failure point).

Here is the output from fdisk:
gentoo@livecd ~ $ sudo /sbin/fdisk -l /dev/sda
