Not to mention the break with >tradition (what is happening to this world)! :) I prefer having separate partitions because it's more in line with traditio= nal unix systems, and in particular, I don't like letting users have unlimi= ted access to /tmp. /tmp isn't a place for people to dump their downloads, large file copies, e= tc. They should do that in their home directories. Having one big partition= only allows people to abuse /tmp, among other things. _____________ The information contained in this message is proprietary and/or confidentia= l.
