[plug] Gentoo on APC cover disc

[hatari at iinet.net.au]

Hello, Tomasz....

Part of the installation asks what type of file system is desired.  I specified ext3.  The 
installation continued.  On a subsequent boot I noticed (in the scrolling text) that the file 
system being mounted (ie installed) was ext2.  It just ain't what was requested.  That's all.

I have since removed that installation and moved on to others.  I might revisit it some time.  
At that time it wasn't critical for me, just a nuisance.  So I removed it.  Since it is removed I 
am not sure which distro.  (I suspect an Ubuntu-based one - but don't hold me to that 
because I am not sure.)

Regards,
wayne
