I've been reading up on recommended partitioning scheme and looking at Centos 5 beta's default scheme, it struck me that with LVM, it doesn't matter any more as long as we leave aside enough room for /boot, does it? Or am I still missing something here? Thanks! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Some other caveats I've run into are trying to unmount /usr (lvm) so I can fsck it in single mode only to find out LVM has stuff open there. I usually keep a Knoppix boot disk handy for those instances. -- Flambeau Inc. Technology Center - Baraboo, WI Email : tblader at flambeau.com Keyserver: http://pgp.mit.edu KeyID: 0x00E9EC2C
