Hi,

despite the tons of information, I'm a bit confused on the
following issues: I have DSL running on an AST950N, I can
backup/restore (via GUI) to hda4, but how do I get a
persistent /home and /opt going on hda4 ?

My partition:
hda1: Win95
hda2: 60M, this is where DSL sits
hda3 swap
hda4: 1GB

During the frugal grub install, there was no option to specify
the location of home and opt. This was actually different from
frugal install, that's explained in the pdf doc. So, how do I
get /home and /opt on hda4 ?

Cheers
