I always give /usr 2GB. On my laptop, /usr is using 1.5GB. I recently started separating out /usr/local onto it's own partition of 500MB too, since I install software there that is not part of Debian. For your situation, you could resize / to 500MB and add that to /usr using parted. jc -- Jeff Coppock Systems Engineer Diggin' Debian Admin and User -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
