Making the following. /boot 100MB (due to that currently Grub don't support LVM boot) on Rh9 Swap (dependent on your usage) For other making a LVM Group using all your 160 GB HDD But with about 4 LVM partition, Each 40 GB. Then on the LVM group only make your Ext3 Partition. Then you will have much more flexibility, resize on Partition - -- - ------------------------------ éäèäæååæ Amitabha Buddhist Society (M) 16A, 1st Floor, Jalan Pahang, 53000, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
