You don't *need* any partitions other than /. Creating separate partitions for /, /usr, /home, /tmp,/var, /usr/local, /boot, /var/spool, /var/www, etc., is a _convenience_ for better managing your system.And a real time saver, too! Every other boot one of my partitions is fsck'ed for having been mounted 20+ times.But if the whole thing was fsck'ed at once, I might be fck'ed (if I was in a big hurry, for example)
There is probably a way to change the automatic fsck so that all the partitions are fscked at the same time. Would this be any better?
