The Beige along with the first G3 Powerbooks, are the only G3s that need the max 8mb partition at the top of the drive with the OS to boot. that being so, and your having a larger drive, it is best to put everything else on the second (or third. etc?) partition. It will work either way of course, but X is a hog and need lots of room for its virtual memory thing and for temp. files. Basically, however, X needs as much room as possible, and as much ram as possible. regards, Bill http://www.william-jurgenson.com -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
