Generally speaking, I like to put the /boot and the / on the first drive below the 1024 mark, then the /home (or whatever) and the swap on a completely different physical drive (or more!). Same with any version of Winders - I put the OS on one drive and the TEMP or PAGEFILE on another physical drive...
For all intents and purposes, MDK might be "a happy camper" beyond 1024, but I still like to impose my scheme...(for load balancing amongst other things)...I'll give it a shot on my next test system to see if it works...Tanx Carroll!
