Partitions are terribly useful. There several useful mount flags: noatime, noexec, nodev, nosuid By using several partitions (I always have /, /boot, /tmp, /home, /var, /var/tmp, /usr) I have fine grained control over setting these flags without affecting existing programs. This is in addition to have partitions like / and /boot on RAID1 partitions while not being burdened to do this for all the system. If anything, people should use more partitions, not less. -- ➧ Ulrich Drepper ➧ Red Hat, Inc. ➧ 444 Castro St ➧ Mountain View, CA ❖
