I haven't put /usr on a separate partition since the 1980s when I was trying to build 20-user systems with 20-40MB hard disks. I never separate out /tmp or /var or /usr/local - I only ever use / and /home basically. I might split off /var on a server but I'd need a remarkably persuasive use case, and on servers, I use extra-stable distros without GUIs, not something like Fedora. But this just illustrates the breadth of scenarios a successful installer must cope with! -- Liam Proven * Profile: http://lproven.livejournal.com/profile Email: lproven@xxxxxxxxx * GMail/G+/Twitter/Flickr/Facebook: lproven MSN: lproven@xxxxxxxxxxx * Skype/AIM/Yahoo/LinkedIn: liamproven Tel: +44 20-8685-0498 * Cell: +44 7939-087884 -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
