It made less sense (although IMO it still *did* make sense) because it was so hard to get the allocation % correct and there was very little slop to recover. With larger drives, lots of slop and growth room (could leave unallocated space on the disk: couldn't do that often on the small disks). But what really makes it useful (counter-intuitive, but true IMO) is the availability of LVM. Even considering some of the overlapping functionality, aggressive partitioning with aggressive use of the LVM facilities can yield a lot. But remember that I'm new to LVM and my opinion should be suspect. > <snip> -- Bill -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
