yeah i eventually gathered multipartitioning was a server thing
/var/www for websites

my main machine itself is multipartitioned
the machine was old (with only one hard-disk 20G)
so had to buy a second 40G Gig and
slice it and rearrange things

so in fact the partitioning is quite ugly

hda1 for /boot 3%
sda5 for /mnt/external 57%
hda3 for / 60%
hdb1 for /vmware 95%
hda2 for swap
hdb3 for /mnt/lfs
hdb2 for /home

and some empty partitions flying about
