Hi Andras,
I have a quick question: When the installer prompts for a mount point (/ or
/root or /boot or /home etc), is there any particular reason to choose one
over another ? Or does it not matter during a simple installation ?
You can have different mount points (partitions) for any directory in
your system. You must have a "/" mount point no matter what. The rest
is optional.
However I very highly recommend a separate partition for /boot, and
highly recommend a separate partition for /home.
