Redoing Arch from scratch...

Since I am in a constant learning mode with Arch I wanted to do an utter format and reinstall it on the stand alone computer I have.  This is the one where I installed arch once before ( and  it was working ok ).   Going through the installer, I partitioned the hard drive as follows:

disc1 = bootable  1015 MB Primary     Root
disc5=780 MB Logical   Swap
disc6 =5015 MB Logical  usr
disc7 = 7005 MB Logical Var
disc8= 19000 Mb Logical home

All were using ext 3  except swap of course.    The part that annoys me is that when it came time to set the mount points ( which is the last column in my small list above), the screen shows a disc2 in the list.    What is disc2 and where is it from?????    The thing is that I had figured it out before, but I just have no clue at this point.

This is a straightforward ( I thought ) format and install of Arch ( much like you can do with Windows....which may be my first mistake )

Thanks,

Re: Redoing Arch from scratch...

Ah,

Thank you!   The moment I read your reply the answer was obvious!   Then again, I should not have done this when I was tired.  *sigh*
Anyway I can now proceed.   
Thanks again!
