As disk capacity increases fsck takes a long time when it has a huge partiton to check. I'm not aware of technical reasons for having only / and /home. Seems to me to be similar to putting all business records in a single file folder (or personal records in a shoebox) rather than in one folder for each month. Underneath, does it really matter how hard drives are partitioned or is it simply personal preference? Just curious. Thanks for the good information, Dale. and I'll be at Free Geek when they open to see if they have a refurb I can use in the interim.
