I could use some expert partition advise.

I have a red hat 9.0 , on a p4 3.02ghz, 1g ram with 2 hard drives.

The 1st hard drive is 160gb
The 2nd hard drive is 200gb

The basic partition for direct admin c panel is

/boot 40 meg
/dev/shm 2 x memory
/ rest of drive

Do i set this on the 1st hard drive? Do i have the hard drives set backwards?

I would like to use the other hard drive as a back up drive, so what would be my best partition for each hard drive to make direct admin sucessfully install and the system to run?

Many thanks in advance.

Search is your friend as there are lots of good threads here, on partitioning.

that is not "HELP"


I have been thru the search and find nothing like what I need.

sheesh!!!!

are you going to install any thing such as cpanel/whm etc?

yes I'm going to set up direct admin c panel.
