Somebody in the thread at some point said:
| OK, this is what I did. I first made the first partition ext2,

| Andy's message: # ls -l /boot

| drwx------ 2 root root   12288 Nov 20 06:48 lost+found

Why is there a lost+found dir in what is meant to be /boot, it makes it
look like it is a filesystem all of its own and we're looking at / in that.

| And of course the (vfat+ext2) choice I can still reach is now invalid,
| because I now only have (ext2).

Qi is adaptive, you can use the same VFAT + EXT3 <=== has to be EXT3 for
the Qi binaries until now, it will skip the VFAT partition and load up
from the next EXT3 one.
