[64studio-devel] Can't mount the 64studio partition

During the disc partition stage of the 64 Studio install, if you choose 
manual partitioning you can set up mount points for partitions used by 
other distros, or Windows. Then you should see all the partitions on 
your discs as soon as you boot into 64 Studio for the first time. I'd 
have to say this isn't very obvious though.

I'm glad to hear it went well for you - Free's been working hard on 
making the install as smooth as possible. Plus we're using the very 
latest beta installer from Debian etch, which helps.

Did you get it working later? What chipset is listed by lscpi -vv under 
'Multimedia audio controller' or similar?

Cheers!
