I recently did something similar (although I didn't want all exactly equal for
all partitions), and
found a mini-howto very useful.
But I don't know where I got it. I think I found it either through the
www.google.com or www.alltheweb.com
search engines. I'll copy the first lines and contents here in case someone in
the list needs to look for it and I'll
send you a copy in a small attachment.
