Actually, what is very helpful I find, is make a seperat /home
partition that way, if your system bombs, you at least don't lose
personal files, and the file of your users.

NEWBIES -*- PAY ATTENTION:
During the process of learning linux I went through MANY installation
sessions. You can really learn a lot that way.
One of the things I learned is to have a separate partition where I keep
anything I want to save when re-installing a distro, particularly
configuration files and sources for non-distro files I have downloaded.
Hope this saves folks some time.
