Ok since going manual I choosed to partition the free space left
in the original configuration. The installer warned me that
booting from an extended partition might not work.

On reboot I tried :

load /dev/fs/ext2Xwd0c/boot/vmlinux-2.6.27.1-yeeloong

(s/X/@/g)

but it said "Undefined error: 0".

What boot command should I use?

Is PMON able to list the partitions and list the content
of a subdirectory on a partition?

Thanks in advance,

Laurent
