So given an external 18 GB disk on my SS 2, currently 
having "ROM Rev. 2.4.1", this part layout is a good bet?
(1 GB boot & system)
(5 GB /home)
(6 GB extension of home connected by soft link)
(another 6 GB extension of home connected by soft link)

Swap is on an internal 50 pin SCSI and I'll install a 
2.9 ROM when feasible.

Any further advice is welcome of course.

Thanks,         ... Peter E.
