On a related issue, is it possible to combine several drives/partitions into one logical Linux file system?
In other words, if I have 3 hard drives, I might want to use one partition on hda for /boot, another partition on hdb for /swap, and use all remaining space on all other drives/partitions as the root fs.
Windows 2000 can do something similar, can Linux do this?
What you want is LVM (Logical Volume Manager). Version 2 is just out, I think. In addition to this, possibly you might find some use of RAID useful.
