13. Create the
/ (root)
partition on the
/dev/rssdX
device node, as well as any other
mount points such as
<swap>
,
/home
, or
/opt
. If desired, create a separate /boot

# mount -t ext2 /dev/sda1 /mnt
17. Copy the mtip32xx driver binary file into the kernel driver directory and then un-
mount and remove the USB drive:
#cp -f /mnt/mtip32xx-<version>/mtip32xx.ko /target/lib/modules/'uname -r' /
kernel/drivers/block/mtip32xx
# unmount /mnt
18. Get a chrooted bash environment:
# chroot /target
# bash
If you are installing 12.04.3 or later, or if you are installing a P320h drive, go to step
