I understand SuSE is a great distribution of Linux, so I decided to download it and give it a try. I tried to install SuSE 6.3 yesterday night and here is my saga... 1) I want to setup my system according to the following: swap = /dev/hde5 /boot = /dev/hde8 / = /dev/hde19 2) SuSE YAST2 mentioned, in the installation comments, that the three partitions need to be adjacent 3) How do I work around this situation to use the setup that I mentioned above? If I tell YAST2 to install SuSE to hde19, I "THINK" it will then take that partition and create three partitions out of it (Since I haven't done it yet, I am making an assumption). Assuming that is the case, I was thinking of installing LILO to diskette instead of the MBR or hde8 (my preference). Can I then boot SuSE with the boot disk and then once in SuSE: 1) copy the files in /boot to hde8 2) edit /etc/lilo.conf to reflect the change 3) run /sbin/lilo 4) edit /etc/fstab to use hde5 as the swap partition and 5) then reboot the PC and tell my boot manager to boot hde8 in order to boot SuSE 6.3?
