I have my own weird approach that's even weirder than my mdev setup<G>. |
| 23 |
I start with... |
| 24 |
* 250 megabytes for / as ext2fs (No that is not a typo) |
| 25 |
* 4 gigs for swap |
| 26 |
* the rest of the drive is /home as one huge reiserfs partition |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
And I do *NOT* use LVM. "fdisk -l" shows... |

The secret is that I bindmount /opt, /var, /usr, and /tmp onto the |
| 48 |
large reiserfs partition. |
