Stuart, I'm not sure what the future of that particular issue is, but I remember a time in the Red Hat Linux days when the partition layout *did* change depending on the installation type, and I assume it could conceivably be that way in the future. This may be a subject you should direct to the anaconda-devel list, to get input from the developers themselves. Does anyone else have a suggestion? -- Paul W. Frields, RHCE
