I guess I got mine from the handbook back in early 2003. That is when I did my first install. Also, as I stated, I have / and /boot on regular partitions and everything else on LVM. Care to guess why I don't have / on a LVM too? Yep, to avoid the init thingy. I don't have /boot on LVM because grub didn't support it. Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ...
