I USED to install Fedora on my eeepc 901 with /usr not on the root partition. that machine has a 4 gig SSD and a 16 gig SSD. I'd put / on the 4 gig, /home, /usr and swap on the 16 gig. if I put /usr on the 4-gig partition it'd be almost full right off the bat, so that simply adding a few more packages and it'd be full. so I moved /usr to the other drive. but since you can't have a (supported) separate /usr anymore I've stopped doing that. now I just make both drives into a LVM and put everything inside it. it feels slower that way, but at leasst it all fits. -- ---- Fred Smith -- fredex@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ----------------------------- "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven." ------------------------------ Matthew 7:21 (niv) ----------------------------- -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
