why would you want a quota on your root??? quotas are often used 
to /home /var at this point if you place a quota on your root everything 
from the top of the heirarchy until below will have limit on the use of 
space. I suggest you re-partition your harddisk. I prefer you have a 
seperate partition for the /home if you are into giving out shells. It 
always depends on what the purpose of the box would be regarding to 
partitions. If it for webspace a decent size of /var would do.

Have fun! hope this reaction would teach you few tips :)
