   Oh, I should explain myself.   
      
   The disk geometry here is like this:   
      
   I have 2 Slackwares running, one working, one for backup and occasional   
   testing.   
   My own files, configuration files, Programs have a partition on their own,   
   and   
   I link them into the /home directories of the OSes, and up to now the /tmp   
   dirs   
   had their own partitions.   
      
      Now because I sometimes mess things up, I have another Slackware   
   running, very   
   small without X, with the purpose to run lilo (and perhaps go into the   
   working   
   OSes to repair a messed up configuration file).  Ah, there is still   
   another one,   
   even smaller, to save FatDog configuration files.   
      
   Thus, all that remains in the single-digit area  :-)   
      
      
   Thanks Erich
