I'm installing (fresh) SuSe10.0
I'm using at the moment SuSe9.3
I have 1 harddisk of 40 GB
Memory 640 MB

The suggested partitioning is as follows:
Format partition /dev/hda1 (392.1 MB) for swap
Format partition /dev/hda2 (36 GB) for / with reiserfs

I however want a seperate partition for /home (and other good suggestions)

I'm NOT an expert on how to set Create Partition Setup (for experts)
In Expert Partitioner is following information:
Device Size F Type Mount
Start End Used By Label
/dev/hda 73GB ST340823A 0
4864
/dev/hda1 392.1MB F Linux swap swap 0
49
/dev/hda2 36.8GB F Linux native(Reiser) /

I need some advise on how to do it and what is the best way (other
suggestions) to partition my harddisk.

Henk
