I've been doing this for quite some time now, sans the links to /lib/modules. Initially it was to overcome issues with LILO being able to find the kernel in large disks. Now its just habit. Interestingly, When using the "custom" option in the RedHat installer and the letting disk druid automatically partition the disk, the result is the same. 50mb /boot , some amount for swap, the rest for root. > > TIA, > Matt > > ps.

I'm just sorry the thread didn't make it to the general list, sigh. _______________________________________________ Linux-users mailing list - http://linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users Subscribe/Unsubscribe info, Archives,and Digests are located at the above URL.
