I'm due to install a 4/280 with 2 * 892Mb disks this week. Has anyone come across any non obvious limitations or things-I-should-know about partitioning these beasts? I'm thinking primarily about any restrictions on maximum partition size (like how many bits long is the block count, ie. will I have to use > 1K blocks if I have 800Mb partitions?). Is it sensible to have 800Mb partitions? I only really want two partitions, usr and home (plus obviously swap and root). What is the optimum swap swap size for an 8Mb 4/280? Etc etc etc. Any comments or suggestions welcome .. Ten tons of flax, -- Hugh
