Well, it means I can have separate filesystems for things that I don't
want overwritten if I reinstall (/home, /usr/local, /opt, /var/www,
etc.)
That's only 4, or 7 with / , /boot and swap.
How do you get up to 15?

Multiboot with various Windows, Ubuntu's, other Fedora's? Each should have its own /, at least.

That's what VMs are for, no?

That said, if one does not work in multi-platform software development, I totally agree that cluttering the disk with all that stuff is very ugly, at the very least. These days virtual machines are much cleaner and easier to maintain than multiboot setups.

Best, :-)
