[Gllug] Partioning advice needed

[John G Walker]

I've been playing around, installing openSUSE 10.2 on a spare
machine.I've been doing this in experimental mode, including
overwriting my original installation.

The result is that I think I may have more partitions than I actually
need. What I have is:

/dev/sda1 2.0GB   Linux swap (mount: swap)
/dev/sda2 20.0GB  Linux native
/dev/sda3 210.0GB Extended
/dev/sda5 20.0GB  Linux native (mount: /)
/dev/sda6 190.8GB Linux native (mount: /home)

(There is no sda4)

My question is: do I need sda2 and sda3? These were all created by the
Suse installation process, and IIRC the original installation only
created three partitions - one each for swap, / and /home,

 All the best,
