A friend of mine just installed Redhat Linux to play with it.  He told
me that you need to create separate partitions/file system for it. I know in
FreeBSD I just create one partiton per drive and make my filesystems there.
Does anyone know of any advantages/disadvantages to creating a partition per
file system vs one partition and multiple file systems?
