Re: Rearranging partitions

Hi, I think this too, that is better move /usr/lib to /mnt but FHS will be adopted and /usr/doc will be added to /usr/share, giving a total of: 250+264=514 against 505 of /usr/lib. So it's better move /usr/share, or not? Thanks,PH Bob Nielsen wrote: > I'd recommend moving /us
