"Because" and "it's been that way historically" are probably the best answers. Note that this is trivial to change: create the new mountpoints and change /etc/fstab to taste.

But full FHS compliance isn't in Debian yet, and I don't think the upcoming potato release will have it either. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.mit.edu/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
