hi karl... you're on the right track...!! however, if i may... a lot of the questions that you have a rapid fire.. and sometimes you get frustrated with fedora... believe me, i've been there. do you have access to IRC? if you don't IRC is basically a freeflowing chat app, where you have all kinds of channels. some of the people are really quite good.. others are simply to be ignored (much like some on this list, or anywhere else for that matter!!). if you want to do the IRC thing, google, to get a feel for what client you need, as well as how to set it up. once you get it up/running, you can then get to the fedora/rhel/centos channels... (again, check google.) let me know how it goes.. get me your email if you want to take this offline.. bedouglas@xxxxxxxxxxxxx -----Original Message----- From: fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx]On Behalf Of Karl Larsen Sent: Friday, September 07, 2007 4:29 PM To: For users of Fedora Core releases Subject: Ideas For many years my Fedora has been in one partition off the /. This list has convinced me that it makes real sense to put /boot and /home into their own partitions. Now I am thinking about doing that. For /boot it needs no special connection to the main partition. It has all this in it's grub.conf and initrd files. All you need to do is retrain grub to goto the new partition. That is simple from a Rescue cd. Now /home is different. It will be in a new partition and connected to the main F7 by /ect/fstab entry. Not sure what that will look like. Maybe like this if /home is in /dev/sda7 the entery in fstab would be: /dev/sda7 /home ext3 defaults 0 0 Is any of this correct? -- Karl F.
