The Skolelinux installer enforces a micropartitioning theme, splitting all parts of the filesystem into several volumes. While there are theoretical benefits, most a re historic, and in practice, the scheme complicates installations and maintenance (there is an entire chapter in the manual describing what to do if something runs full). I know from at least two support cases that the scheme made things more difficult than necessary, and it cost me several hours today because I had to install Debian Edu with limited space and one of the partitions always ended up being too small. I propose compeltely dropping Edu's own partitioning scheme and simply using the corresponding step from the Debian installer, or defaulting to jsut one partition or at most three (root, home and backup). -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJ4BAEBCABiFiEEPJ1UpHV1wCb7F/0mt5o8FqDE8pYFAlqr5KgxGmh0dHBzOi8v d3d3LmRvbWluaWstZ2VvcmdlLmRlL2dwZy1wb2xpY3kudHh0LmFzYxIcbmlrQG5h dHVyYWxuZXQuZGUACgkQt5o8FqDE8pYBCQ//T0zFuBucOSoYXsMM/bvNvIdXmA6B VHLm8JdP56NwMi+xJciBxenAdrZHcoF01NwfMsnlwVPF90IFwTex10YsVpd2ljIG a2p9YKGFzZgLWrPmyPhEwQ1SEWfdiCTx2AzF3hy7BjUbOm5gQjtDvDmjEnKC5YFh C00gow39e9BKbhDeu8RG64w8UhB5a86ZTVKcmSXWZdjcDP+bsjXV7XdoLFyyktqC RJeWBTJnJsDkijCGfT8PW9jHsMlF3orS5NaMvtLlVrAkVN8WO8v39d94eW6nzHm2 L/kTkjb1jOi7vjGtQ3UKBIVd1N9LfBHMyyGB4Jlvi9kVNMtC9LQnKgm3ZRwoSPIj DdopTanN4wMrn4k9qkUsNZDz73VrjMa1tB1ntDoqCSgzwZ6yjaoz841eGXLIjNfh e60R9d2u8OZSktCp5dSshY/MffhJOYzQZwe26bybJxmI/47n5hJsUEz8BQKGeHQG 1/tGKe0kwVQyO7qOfqzsuXL/YnR0tZ8cvcVKTbHSIwKppjFiqLElGImTZJ5gSeRZ B6bu7RgYUSWNDDqXunFzsACmXdc1DVhFkEq5StNJ5yeurXuGeklgWQ7Jd3p7ZQaT CCNHFqzX8Ys7CAJIShFHlNoHqhBWBk1w5qvm8Eed7UdF5DkKJOLuoRc+5nlraNSz oIzC/cbMN4/jEN8= =PtjD -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
