Norberto and  Josh:

Thank you for the suggestion.  It's on the back burner.  I have the space to
experiment with it now.  I have balked for the time being on basis of,
partly, my need to be able to swap drives in and out, and have it clear in
mind which partitions belong to what.  Also my main drive is a 10000 RPM
faster drive, and I'd like to keep the partitions or directories that are
mainly for storage separated.  I really do notice a difference in the
performance of the drive.  this is somewhat of a conundrum: how to keep the
current projects focused on the faster drive.

Interestingly (to me) while I carefully planned for swap on the faster
drive, since I moved to 2GB of RAM, I think I've only touched swap two or
three times, and then only passingly!

I definitely wouldn't want to put / into LVM.

If I do LVM it will be the easy way, the most clearcut way.

Alan
