Pro:
  1) 8 second fsck on a 6 gb partition
  2) less wasted disc space (i.e. empty space consumed by directories
     etc.)
  3) generally faster

Con:
  1) If you're using a stock Mandrake kernel, you need an initrd to load
     the module or you get a kernel panic on boot.  (Another reason to
     recompile your kernel after you install :)    
  2) That initrd is yet another file that can't be moved/copied
     without due consideration (i.e. reinstalling the boot loader)
