I always thought that using a single partition for the whole physical hard disk, was a Windows thing, and using lots of partitions was a Linux thing; but i could swear someone in this thread said the opposite was what was widely accepted as the norm.
It was probably me and what I meant was that quite many people windows machines what I have used have had C/D/E etc. DRIVE letters and folder structure is bit like your bookshelf in library. When it comes Linux FS itīs something that at least to me I can't put in real physical world. Itīs just totally something different.
