is; you can mount them anywere. The mapping dosen't
involve the actual mount point, for the mapping,
if that makes sense .
The mount point is just a fs abstaction, for our
benifit. It dosen't effect the actual "sector"
location on disk. Which is all lilo needs to know.

Right, it shouldn't matter...but it did. Or at least as I remember it seemed to. I had a bit of a time trying to get the Mandrake system to work, it seemed like it was trying to load the Knoppix kernel then mount /hda8 as root & use the Mandrake setups until I added the complete path to the image.
