Hi have Kubuntu running on Hoary right now, but when I did my initial
formatting I have just the root dir.
/etc/fstab looks like this:
tim at spike:~$ cat /etc/fstab
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/hda6 / reiserfs notail 0 1
/dev/hda5 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/hdc /media/cdrom0 udf,iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0
/dev/hdd /media/cdrom1 udf,iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0
/dev/fd0 /media/floppy0 auto rw,user,noauto 0 0
Now that I am looking to upgrade to Breezy I am wondering if I screwed up at
the start. I am starting to see the benefits of having home on a separate
partition.
I do still have a 40 gig partition that holds Windows XP that I haven't booted
into for six months so maybe it is time for that to go.
If I do a clean install of Breezy, what would you suggest for partitions?
Next question:
If I do a clean install of Breezy into the current XP space, how can I keep
all my emails... currently using Kontact.
Thanks,
Tim
