Lyndon,

In windows if you have 7 GB partitions then they are FAT32 partitions. I
don't think FAT32 is subject to cluster size issues the same way FAT16 was.
i.e. I don't believe you need to worry about partitioning in windows or in
linux.

Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

Jim

Subject: [newbie] Hard Drives


Seeing how I am going to install Linux this weekend I have a question
pertaining to multiple hard drives.
  I have 3 HD's that will be on the Linux box 6gb, 7gb & 30gb. In windows I
normally partition the 30gb  into 4 7gb partitions so I have smaller
clusters and am not wasting space.

Do I need to do this with the 30gb drive under Linux? Or can I just use one
partition?

Thanks Lyndon
