Anne, I know I'm a different Marc, but I'll answer you anyway =). Yes, this does give you three partitions. It makes the /home a little bigger than the /, and the swap is the right size. It's all proportional to the space it has. But sometimes I think it doesn't mount the /home correctly...did that to me once.. --Marc
