Hello,
I needed to make some changes to my partitions, and decided to put /etc on a seperate slice. The idea behind it was to make sure that /etc can be recovered in case I need to reinstall my OS...
I've added the mountpoint /etc in fstab, but as you know /etc is where fstab resides so some problems pop up once you boot the OS (it hangs).
Is there somewhere I can tell Ubuntu before it mounts all my disks where /etc resides? /boot/grub/menu.lst??
Many thanks.
