It is likely that audio and video professionals need later more disks. But RedHat has only a cumbersome, lowest level fdisk. However, RH has a good graphical disk formatter but it is available only when RH is installed first time. Now that USB disks are very easy to add by users, should distros have such easy-to-use partitioner and formatter. Have Debian and other distributions a good graphical disk partitioner and formatter? In the application launcher menu? Juhana -- http://music.columbia.edu/mailman/listinfo/linux-graphics-dev for developers of open source graphics software
