Mounting question

Hi All

Yesterday i tried to install arch on a partition (im dual booting with windows 7) and set up my various partitions for arch.  Then the next step is to assign mount points etc, but i could not figure out how to mount / & /boot to the same partition and then i just kept getting errors.  I ended up going back to xubuntu for now.

So how do i manually set the mount points during installation ?

Many Thanks

Re: Mounting question

If you don't want to split root and /boot into separate partitions, just specify where to mount root without specifying where to mount /boot. Your boot partition will then default to being installed in your root partition
