root is a broad group. Now remeber, FC3 using LVM, so you can resize whenever you feel like (growing is easier, I'm told, than shrinking). Personally, I always partition like this: /boot 100MB swap 1GB (twice my ram, max is at 2GB) / everything left (unless I plan to do something else). Since FC3 using LVM, if you're not please with your partition layout, you can just change it later :) -- Scott Paul Robertson http://spr.mahonri5.net GnuPG FingerPrint: 09ab 64b5 edc0 903e 93ce edb9 3bcc f8fb dc5d 7601
