- Sigh, so much for Portal's editor.

- I recently wrote:

- | a: 0 1754/0/0
- | c: 0 1754/0/0

- That should have read: "What I do for the Quantum 425S partitioning is:
-
- a: 0 1752/0/0
- c: 0 1752/0/0
-
- and make a single filesystem on the entire a: partition. You'd alter this
- strategy for a boot disk since you want a "/" partition as "a:", your swap
- partition as "b:", and a "/usr" partition elsewhere on the drive (probably
- :g)."
