Thanks to those who've replied. One last question: at the moment I've got three partitions on my drive : hda1 Win95 (hanging head in shame) hda5 Debian hda6 linux swap Ok. I've still got a gig free. If I partition this into a few linux partitions for /usr, /, /home, etc., I'll have names like: hda7 hda8 hda9 Ok. So I put those in lilo.conf and in fstab, and life's good. Now if I _delete_ hda5, do they all get bumped back up a number? Won't that confuse lilo, when it looks for vmlinuz on hda7 but the partition's been renamed to hda6?
