hi karl...

you're on the right track...!!

however, if i may... a lot of the questions that you have a rapid fire.. and
sometimes you get frustrated with fedora... believe me, i've been there.

do you have access to IRC? if you don't IRC is basically a freeflowing chat
app, where you have all kinds of channels. some of the people are really
quite good.. others are simply to be ignored (much like some on this list,
or anywhere else for that matter!!).

if you want to do the IRC thing, google, to get a feel for what client you
need, as well as how to set it up. once you get it up/running, you can then
get to the fedora/rhel/centos channels... (again, check google.)

let me know how it goes.. get me your email if you want to take this
offline..

    For many years my Fedora has been in one partition off the /. This
list has convinced me that it makes real sense to put /boot and /home
into their own partitions. Now I am thinking about doing that.

    For /boot it needs no special connection to the main partition. It
has all this in it's grub.conf and initrd files. All you need to do is
retrain grub to goto the new partition. That is simple from a Rescue cd.

    Now /home is different. It will be in a new partition and connected
to the main F7 by /ect/fstab entry. Not sure what that will look like.
Maybe like this if /home is in /dev/sda7 the entery in fstab would be:

/dev/sda7         /home        ext3      defaults      0  0

    Is any of this correct?
