The new F17 file system

[NRL]

Hi,

I'm going to do a clean install of F17 and was wondering about the new 
file system. I'm installing it onto a new hard drive. Since I'm doing a 
clean install is there a way to not install or remove the Symlinks in 
the new / directory layout? I see no need to have them. Will F17 run 
without them? I only ask because it would make a cleaner and neater file 
system. In no way does it bother me to have them. I'm just curious.
