IMHO there still might be advantages to using more partitions, for example security (you can mount /boot /tmp /home with nodev, noexec, nosuid, /usr with read-only, etc.), or different quota settings. But it would be probably more usable for server, less for workstation... Jarry -- Telefonieren Sie schon oder sparen Sie noch?
