I just took the defaults, which doesn't do a separate partition. But it
is quite small - it fits on a dvd, so I can just back up. It is strange
though, I am not getting problems generally - programs are not crashing
mysteriously or anything. But intensive work building like gub, or, once
just building denemo, throws up some un-repeatable failure of gcc, or
gas or ld or ...
I don't know how to install debian again without downloading everything
again, which takes more than one night. Is there some re-installation
that would work from the already downloaded stuff?
