Not sure why you would bother with separate /boot and / partitions on a
system with only 4GB of mass storage. Just go with a single partition, and

I've used ghostscript to "optimize" some very large PDF documents. Maybe
not exactly what you want, but it worked pretty well in my case, thus:

This is really related to iptables, not I presume Fedora-specific. But I'm
really hoping that somebody here will be able to school me on iptables, so
I don't have to find and subscribe to some other list just to ask one
question.
