I have a triple boot system: Fedora, Gentoo and Win2k.
How do I find out the filesystem which the Gentoo installation employs?
If Gentoo's using ext3, then I'd add the following line to the /etc/fstab
file?
/dev/hdb3 /mnt/gentoo ext3 users,owner,rw,umask=000 0 0
?
Can I probe hdb3 to find out the filesystem? I think it's ext3, but don't
recall.
