I'm not entirely clear on this. WHen I make a number of partitions I must
also specify a mount-point. But, how can I know which directories end up
where? What is the mechanism behind this? Is the partition-size a factor?

Perhaps an example is in order:

Suppose I have two partitions hda3 and hda4
        hda3 gets mountpoint /boot
        hda4 gets mountpoint /

Which directories will be on hda3 and which will be on hda4? Why?

Another one:
        hda3 gets /
        hda4 gets /usr

Same questions.
