Would it be better to make my new partition a primary partition, or an extended one, since this will be /home. And, can I get away with naming it home? If I do, what will happen when I re-install, and it sees a partition called home?

Possible, yes. Advisable? Maybe. Maybe not. If you have free space, or an existing partition you aren't using and don't need any longer, then absolutely. Do it. If you have to resize, I would be leary. _______________________________________________ Speakup mailing list Speakup at braille.uwo.ca http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup
