<BLOCKQUOTE class=replbq style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid">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><BR>TheCactusKid Cactus wrote:<BR>

<DIV><FONT size=3><STRONG>Hi y'all,</STRONG></FONT></DIV>
<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>
