Date: 3 Nov 1995 16:38:13 GMT Organization: EMBA Computer Facility, The University of Vermont Lines: 17 Message-ID: <47dghl$o2k@swen.emba.uvm.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: opus.emba.uvm.edu X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] I have a laptop and am very low on space, so I'd like to install the entire system on a single / partition. When I tried to do this with the 100595 SNAP it gave me the warning about not having a /usr partition and then when I tried to commit it gave me a bunch of errors. If I include a /usr partition the install goes just fine, so I'm assuming that it has to do with the install routine. How should I go about installing onto a single / partition? Is there any trick to it? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
