Not having a separate /home partition has the advantage that on a single storage device, the allocation of storage is automatically optimal between any directories that need it. Need to store big video files in /home all of a sudden? All you have to worry about is if you have enough global disc space. Dealing with changing partition and filesystem sizes because you guessed wrong what size you needed for what directory is in no way "much easier" than just saving the file. But as you say, each to their own. -Andy
Actually, inside /home/user I have /home/user/videos which is it's own partition, that I use to store large files such as videos. This does take some planning on the part of the user, however. Dotan Cohen http://what-is-what.com/what_is/xhtml.html http://gmail-com.com/
