This installation document is written assuming that you are on Pardus 2011 or 2011.2.

Activities to do before installation;

1- Format the partition with ext4, for they are at installation
   a- you can use Gparted
   b- or as root mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdaX

2- You must mount the formatted partition.
   sample:
   (as root) mkdir /mnt/rootfs
   (as root) mount /dev/sdaX /mnt/rootfs

Installation:

(as root) cp -f rootfs-0.2.tar.xz /mnt/rootfs
   
(as root)  cd /mnt/rootfs
   
(as root) tar xvf rootfs-0.2.tar.xz

After Installation:

 1- Copy the files, fstab and initramfs.conf, that you are using with Pardus, in to rootfs 
   (as root)  cp -f /etc/fstab /mnt/rootfs/etc
   (as root)  cp -f /etc/initramfs.conf /mnt/rootfs/etc

 2- Edit the these two files being copied, according to your system

    To learn regulatory information on a terminal ;

    blkid

after this command,you can see the UUID information of your disk partitions.

as an example, for rootfs installiert UUID value (example: 3013baa-42e9-4053-9620-f87ea1570a4a) let us say Arnold

The UUID value, located in /mnt/rootfs/etc/fstab let us say UUID=Arnold

the nether UUİD is the information of part swap.

/mnt/rootfs/etc/initramfs.conf edit UUID=Arnold

now open the Pardus 2011 boot/grub/grub.conf file and;

title Pardus 2011.2 Cervus elaphus [3.6.6]
uuid 03013baa-42e9-4053-9620-f87ea1570a4a
kernel /boot/kernel-3.6.6 root=UUID=03013baa-42e9-4053-9620-f87ea1570a4a resume=/dev/sda3 
initrd /boot/initramfs-3.6.6 

copy-paste this data bottom line, and write on to places UUID value, the Arnold-Value
