Re: Data Partitons
My preference is "A". I find extended partitions to be more flexible down the road, when you want to slice off a little /data for another install partition. Because I typically have 2-3 different OS versions on my computer, I keep /home as part of each seperate installed OS and just keep data as its own partition.

Sorry to hijack the thread, but where did you get your avatar? That looks so dang familiar, but I just can't place it. Looks like something from when I was a kid.

That's cool. My family came from Scotland. We are part of the Muir clan. We represent our clan every year at the Scottish highland games. That picture must have something to do with the Irish.

Re: Data Partitons
I have always found Ext3 to be the most stable for storing stuff. It is pretty robust. I have never used xfs, so I'm not sure what the differences are. From what I have read, xfs is a tad faster with larger files/hard drives.
