Aloha,

When installing RH 8.0 you can have the Disk Druid auto configure the partitions.  It configures so many partitions.  Is that a relic to when hard drives were 6MB and you had to worry about logs filling up your user space?

On a Windoze box I do the standard two partitions, one for applications and logs, they have a relatively fixed size, and another one for data.

Is something else I should be thinking about?  Two partitions seems adequate, one swap and one with a / mount point.
