[Debian-eeepc-devel] About 901 and LVM

Hi everyone, I just bought a new 901 and I'm about to install Debian on it
but I would like to hear some advice from you about this idea:

My idea is to create just one disk with LVM joining the 4 Gb disk with the
16 Gb disk but I'd read on this page
http://wiki.eeeuser.com/hardy_on_eee901that the 16 Gb disk is much
slower that the 4 Gb disk. So, maybe this is not
a great idea and is better to use the default the 4 Gb for / and the 16 Gb
for /home and in the case of need more space for some directory just create
it on /home a make a symlink where it should be on /

What did you think about all this?, is the speed difference between the too
really significant to not join the two in one 20 gb disk?.

Thanks.
Ernesto
