Hey Everyone,

I'm preparing to install Oracle on my Linux server. I was looking for info as to how to set up my partitions for the two hds i have. The only advice i've found was to put all my orable stuff in one place... easy enough, so here is my setup. Should I go with this configuration? Thanks:


Hard Drives: MP: Type: Size:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

/dev/sda
/dev/sda1 /boot ext3 102
/dev/sda2 swap 4001
/dev/sda3 / ext3 30969
/dev/sdb
/dev/sdb1 /opt ext3 70143


I have 2 Gigs of DDRRAM, and two AMD AthlonXP 1800+ processors.

I was told that I should install my OS on 'sda' and Oracle on 'sdb' So that 'sdb' is free for queries, transactions, etc., thereby optimising speed.

Does this look like a good setup? THANKS!!
