Can I have some advice on which part of the file system to install in which partition? For example: Is there any advantage to install /root in its own partition? Would it be more secure? I'm thinking of giving /usr its own partition incase some application gets nasty. /home would get a separate partition and everything else would go into a 4th partition. Does this sound OK? I hope Red Hat 7.2 allows me to do this if I pretend to be an 'expert'. Any advice would be much appreciated.
