I am a big believer in not adding more partitions than necessary.. It just becomes a big headache.. I have two 40 gig drives here that are one big partitions, (except for extra swap partition) and I just mount to directories as I need.. This way, if my mp3s become a problem, I can move them and clear space on my other directories.. My movies seem to move a lot as those things take up a drive in no time. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
