Hi Wolf, Ok thanks. I guess I'm 'okay to go'. What do you think about how much space I have allocated to each partition? As you can see I have an 80 gig drive (total) that I'm installing debian too. Should I leave some 'free space' in the event I want to add another directory in the future? Also read about some other recommended partitioning schemes in the 'short' debian partitioning appendix here: Appendix C. Partitioning for Debian http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/apc.html.en Specifically these sub-sections (very short in length) titled: C.1. Deciding on Debian Partitions and Sizes http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/apcs01.html.en C.2. The Directory Tree http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/apcs02.html.en C.3. Recommended Partitioning Scheme http://www.debian.org/releases/stable/i386/apcs03.html.en Thank you for your support.
