 At first I met a similar problem that I couldn't start X. But when I
 reconfigured my vedio card from the option XFree 4.3 ... with 3 D
 acceleration to just XFree 4.3 without 3D acceleration, everything
was
 fine.

 HTH,

Re: [newbie] How do I do a home partition?

[Pratchaya Chatuphian]

Mandrake can 't remember your home partition itself  if you install
new on your system ..

i think you need to remember  or use  command   df 
to view your partition on you machine ... and need to remember it too .

When you install new , in the section to define partition your can changeble
those partition ... sir ..

and second Question about How many your storgeable it can ? ..
it depend on the type of your system files ..
if you use ext2  it can be up to ...
if you use ext3 it can be up to ...

  File System Stats
  Ext2FS Ext3FS ReiserFS JFS
 Maximum File System Size 4TB (Terabytes) 4TB 16TB 32PB (Petabytes)
 Block Size 1KB to 4KB 1KB to 4KB 4KB (up to 64KB) 512 Bytes to 4KB
 Maximum File Size 2GB 2GB 4GB 512TB to 4PB
 Stability Excellent Good Good Medium
 Tools to recover erased files Yes (complex) Yes (complex) No No
 Reboot time after crash Long to very long Fast Very fast Very fast
 Data recovery efficiency in case of a crash Generally speaking, good,
but high risk of partial or total data loss N/A Very good. Complete data
loss is very rare Very good



and lastet ...

for your swap partition ... almost many people use linux   define that
should be use  2 - 3 x of your Ram(memory )
example :: if you have 128 MB RAM   , you  should define 256 MB for swap .
sir ...

Hope u , correct your problem sir ...

I mean, I know how to partition my HD. What I want to know is how to have a
home partition, how to make Mandrake install to recognize I am selecting a
particular partition as home partition. Also, how large should it be? I
suppose that will be my /home/user partition, will it not? I have Mandrake
installed in two machines. In one I gave it 10 Gig space, and in the other 6
Gig, only one partition in each aside from the swap partitions. and lastly,
is it advisable to have any other partitions?
