How do I do that? and when?
One benefit of symlinking /var/lib/mysql (I think
that's where the database is

Hello Gzim,
JUST a server? What sort of server? How much hard drive space

perl, php, mysql, and these things. I've got 13GB of
space...

/usr, /home as mine as well as a /files for storing shared files.

Dear Jean,
I had the same wishes when I wanted to install Gentoo, and I agree with
you that the directions to have separate /usr, /home and /var partitions
weren't clear. I gave up on trying to have separate partitions after I
went thru the whole install only to have problems mounting them at
Separate partitions have advantages such that if you bork or have a partition
go bad you still have /usr, /home and maybe some others intact. Also /home
on a separate parititon lets you mount it anywhere. I had a system on which
a drive failed and I was able to move the parititions on it to
