    df -a has no (root) / ??

    Not sure if this is the standard for knoppix hdinstall but in this way I can't do partimage fo hda1 because I only see the whole hard drive !!??

    Is it normal not to have the / as root=/dev/hda1

    Thanks

    df problem (actually mtab problem)

    I followed the directions in the FAQ and fixed my mtab. I shut down the computer and mtab was exactly the way it was before, I guess in startup a new mtab is written. (this maybe a version thing)

    So I made an mtab file with my hd stuff and saved it as /etc/mtab-save. I then edited /etc/init.d/bootmisc.sh and added the following two lines at the bottom of the file:

    rm /etc/mtab
    cp /etc/mtab-save /etc/mtab

    now df works as it should.

    HTH
