By default, no.
/dev/ra00 4606 3080 1526 67% /
/dev/ra01 9598 2849 6749 30% /usr
/dev/ra03 423041 8773 414268 2% /user1
I used partition 3 which is the rest of the disk not used by Ultrix-11
and then did the symbolic link thing in the installs.
Even though an
RD54 drive is not huge, most of it is not taken up by the root partition
plus the /usr partition, but is available for use as (on the video at
least) /user1.
That is true, but I seem to remember that even then it is not enough
space for a full install. And I plan to put the sources on as well.
I will give it a try after the weekend and see what happens.
It's all good fun. But, as I said, the real fun doesn't begin until
you go to build a new kernel with more features in it.
