I move it to the "end" of the drive because I can then have my linux SWAP and /boot at the beginning of the drive, then my / => MS will number the partition as #1 so it really doesn't matter - and as well, for MS, I always put the swap, temp, temporary internet files and My Documents on a completely different drive - so there's nothing impeding the OS's performance - NOT that it's performance can be tweaked any further than that anyways. -- -- YankDownUnder aka stephen kuhn #mandriva channel op - irc.freenode.net Mandriva Official IRC Support YankDownUnder -at- Mandriva -dot- org ----------------------------------------------- Running Mandriva LE2005-2.6.11-12mdk Registered Linux User # 267497 ----------------------------------------------- Leela: Ah, maybe they're right, maybe Nibbler is dumb.
