linux 挂载点问题?

sinboy2002

小弟的硬盘里有很多资料都是存放在windows 分区中,能否在linux系统中划
分出一个Ext3格式的分区用来存放windows里面的资料,而不是用mount.
另外,我安装linux时一直是简单的只为linux划为 / 和 swap 二个分区.
如果我为linux多划分了一个 usr 挂载点,linux文件系统的目录结构会是如何?
usr是在 / 里面,还是单独一个分区(与 / 地位相同) 或是两者都有?

我的意思是,能不能像windows那样,
我可以划分出一个单独的分区,用来装mp3或是soft什么的.
如果我为linux划分了一个usr分区,下次我重装linux时,usr里面的数据会不会没有了.

"/usr"  is one of reserved directories of some GNU/Linux release. It is not recommended that you spare a /usr partition special for exchanging between Win and GNU/Linux. Otherwise, most of the applications of GNU/Linux will be installed to that partition by default. During a new installation, the partition labelled "/usr" will be prompted and recommended to be formated. (I think that would not be what you expected if there's some important documentations in this partition!)

As an alternation, you can create a new partition and specify a mounting point for it, such as /mp3, /win_exchange, or something like that. Or, you can mount this partition under /mnt directory, i.e., /mnt/mp3, /mnt/win_exchange... To mount it automatically, you must do some additional work to edit /etc/fstab file. You have the rights to leave them unchanged/unformatted during a new installation of GNU/Linux release.

You can find more about this issue in ChinaUnix's forum.

MOST IMPORTANT: The mounting point /usr is a reserved mounting point of GNU/Linux operating systems.
