I name the /home partition differently on all my boxes too, since it is hard to mount foo:/home and bar:/home on the box baz and have things in those trees that have absolute path names not fight each other. better to mount /foo and /bar on baz (and foo and/or bar). But maybe I'm just weird that way. Warner
