Hi, > Should be good. I tend to disagree with Olivier about not having a > separate /home, and I recall you also being a fan of dump/restore, I advocate a separate file system for /home, but I was suggesting to join that with the Prim #3 partition below, not having one file system for /home and one other file system for /common (as it reduces the fragmentation, and what is common is the data, usually located in /home). > > Extend. #1 > > log. dr. #1 Kali Linux 15 GB /dev/sda5 > > log. dr. #2 Mageia Linux 15 GB /dev/sda6 > > From FreeBSD accessing my old OS/2 partitions I seem to recall that > /dev/ada0s5 is the ext drive itself, and within would be ada0s6 and s7, > though the above nomenclature would be right from Linux' POV. In Linux too (Ubuntu) the Extended #1 is partition #4 and being splited into logical partition #5 and #6. Basically what you write Ian, but you missed the #4: /dev/ada0s4 is the ext drive itself, and within would be ada0s5 and s6... Bests olivier
