Hi,

Yes, it is really a good idea to have another partition here for /home -
this is what I have here.  Also, should we put /etc in a different
partition?

Andrew.

Hi, it should give you a swap partition a boot partition and a large
partition for your files this is how auto works using disk drew it.  If
I read the docs right this is normal and correct behavior for disk drew
it.

I've been trying to install fedora and it hurts me and makes me want to
cry.
Seriously though. when I do autopartition I select what drive  I want
and it gives me 3 partitions after auto. So I'm stuck. lol

I found debian an easier install then fedora. The main reason I liked
the debian install better was that one only needs one cd-rom or I think
2 floppies to do the install (the rest can be done over the
internet) as opposed to fedora requiring 3 cds.
