I don't believe I've quite heard that. And that would mean this can't work: bash-2.05b$ df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/hda2 3.0G 860M 1.9G 30% / /dev/hda1 195M 17M 167M 10% /boot /dev/hdb1 3.0G 184M 2.6G 7% /var /dev/hdb4 6.4G 963M 5.1G 16% /files /dev/hda9 3.9G 2.1G 1.7G 55% /hd2 /dev/hda8 3.0G 762M 2.0G 27% /home none 314M 0 314M 0% /dev/shm /dev/hdb3 6.4G 616M 5.4G 10% /rpm /dev/hda7 6.9G 730M 5.8G 11% /iso /dev/hda3 4.9G 2.5G 2.1G 53% /usr /dev/hdb2 2.0G 89M 1.7G 5% /usr/local /dev/hda5 3.9G 1.5G 2.2G 40% /usr/share /dev/hda10 11G 1.8G 8.2G 18% /store Obviously '/' isn't large enough to hold '/usr' under your claim, let alone all of the others I have as subdirectories to it. No, the real answer is, a partition that is mounted under a directory, such as '/mnt/vfat' or '/vfat' takes no room away from any other partition. > --- Manuel Tejada <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> skrev: > Hi > > I am new in Linux area. > > I have a single disk.
