Re: [Mactel-linux-users] /boot problem

[Jelle De L. <sk...@ki...>]

Thanks for the help! :)

No, I'm using a patchstick (atv-bootloader)
I then telnet into the machine. (According to this tutorial: 
http://www.mythtv.org/wiki/index.php/Installing_MythFrontend_on_Apple_TV_using_Gentoo)

When I reboot the regular linux kernel comes up (the one from the 
patchstick, even without the patchstick)

Can the /boot partition also be an ext2 filesystem, or does it HAVE to 
be fat?
