Description juri 2004-05-04 10:39:58 UTC

Here's a list of little things that i think should be corrected in the x86 handbook:

1) the docache option: pressing F2 at boot there is the old cdcache option listed.

2)emerge --usepkg grub should be emerge grub because it's source code.

3)when I typed mkdir /mnt/cdrom it said it already existed.

That's all for now; these are really unimportant details, let me know if I am right. Bye

what does that mean ?  are you saying the GRP package didnt exist ?

Thanks. The "docache" is the correct option. "cdcache" is an error on the 2004.1 minimal LiveCD. The "--usepkg" and the "mkdir /mnt/cdrom" are removed.
