We do the same thing, except under SLES8. Our root filesystems only have 100MB (with 23MB used). Our reason is, we just like one less layer to repair in case of a corruption. I'll have to try Yast2 the next time there's LVM work. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390
