If your disk has more than 1024 cylinders, and the / partition will
extend beyond cylinder 1023, you will need to use a slightly different
setup:

It's going to be difficult to partition this system, because 6.1 takes up
around 1.1 GB for a full install. You might pare it down to around 900 if
you know what to avoid installin
Hi
This mail is to maybe make a decision easier for you to make
I would go along in total with Rick.
I originally used one large partition/and a swap , while this
will not hurt anyone especially the casual user, I quickly learnt the value
of having a separate /home partition

During the installation you get to partition the drive. The program Disk
Druid does this and you tell it which mount points are assigned to which
partitions (eg. partition 1 (hdb1) /, partition 2 (hdb2) /usr, etc.). If
your just beginning, I found it easier to just throw everything on one
part
