 Whenever I've done installs this way, I've even re-named my /mnt/win_c
 partition (and occasionally even a /mnt/win_d) to /Windows and /Archive
 with no problems whatsoever. Then at least I can find those partitions
 quicker in Konqueror, and I don't have to wait for Konqueror to
 auto-mount my CDrom or Floppy drives each time I need access to the
 Windows or Archive partition. Actually, I just finished one of these types
 of installs this past weekend. Works like a charm.

 Have fun! (?)

You have mounted them at root level? That would stop the 5 second disk 
shuffle pause nicely. Couldn't you edit an existing system with links in your 
/home/user/ that would work as quick?

Yup. Don't see why not. But if your systems and users are trusted, it
shouldn't make any serious difference.
