I think we'll need to understand why you've created all of these partitions? A typical setup might look like this:
hda1 - size 64M, for /boot hda2 - swapspace - e.g. 1.5Gb as you've got hda3 - size 20Gb for / (root) hda4 - the rest for /home
You can certainly create extended partitions for e.g. /var and other things, but your setup seems to be a little off the beaten track.
Maybe you just accepted the partitioners default suggestion when your disk was already partitioned? Personally I would do a reinstall instead of trying to fix it.
Very correct, although I would add that using an extended partition for one or more of the above would allow for expansion. As proposed he would be out of partitions and would have to devote the entire 160GB among /home and / which is waay more than needed. -- Check the headers for your unsubscription address For additional commands send e-mail to suse-linux-e-help@suse.com Also check the archives at http://lists.suse.com Please read the FAQs: suse-linux-e-faq@suse.com
