under a server class partitioning scheme, some of the 1st level
directories under root and including root are separate, like, /var
/home /usr /boot etc. The cool part of this is that you can backup
individual based on partitions and even cooler, you can with some
e2labeling and editing of the /etc/fstab file, slap new drives in and
out based on there respective partitions, i.e. /home. The possibilities
can get kinda crazy, I just wanted to pop in on this one. I'm sure
you'll have plenty on the soap box about this one too!<br>

<div><strong><font size="3">I've got a question. Now I read that
there's a /boot, /root, /swap, /user/local & or /user, (don't
really understand the difference?) and /home. Are there any others I
should know about in a typical installation or is this it? What would
be the difference between.... in the line-up that is....from a
Workstation and Server class install. (as far as types of partitions)
What would be the line-up of either? I know I'm not setting up a server
class system but for the heck of it what would be the line-up? Thanks
for all the help.</font></strong></div>
