'fdisk -l' is a perfectly safe way to convey partitioning information in answer to a help query. To do damage requires getting fdisk to make an inappropriate change and then save it to disk.
yes, but people not knowing how to do fdisk -l may use buggy option or try using fdisk for other work, better warn :-)
As of kernel 2.6.28 the libata 15 partition limit is history. I have a Factory install on a 30 partition system that sees everything just as the legacy drivers did, other than the names are sdaX instead of hdaX.
good to know
For openSUSE 11.1, heavily used, 10Gb is not enough for root. 15 is good, 20 better.
Size is purely a matter of judgement and what you expect do with it.
not quite of judgement. I used a 9Gb partition (the previous system disk "save" one) for openSUSE 11.0 and had serious problems. think that you may have a dvd image in tmp if you use default k3b.... odd :-( of course I have also a puppy linux in 500 *Mo*
instead of accepting the typical default of 2048 or 4096.
new disks uses 4k, anyway. for testing purpose I use 8Gb virtualbox disks, half home, it's not enough to use factory (if you need to compile modules, new kernels are big :-()
including temporary media files, all live on a separate /home.
true, but not as easy to complete as one may think. jdd -- http://www.dodin.net http://valerie.dodin.org http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-eic8MSSfM http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1412160445 -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
