They deliberately fiddle with the numbering system.
Partition 8 was changed to 17.
Partition 8 was SWAP partition.
I keep two SWAP patitions by default.
I had one recovery is impossible.
R. I. P.
I gave partion 17 as /root for UBUNTU.
They did it deliberately.
Then at Boot Time conflict arises and NO Device to Boot message flashes.
Then these guys offer to help to install and charge you for a Free Product.
It is Simply a Dirty Trick.
When SuSe went commercial I ditched it.
When Redhat went commercial I ditched it.
Both during 32 bit days.
I took half an hour to figure out.
Even Debian GNOME realized this having read the log files.
I am vindicated for having two instances of Debian.
I am going to make it three (3), since I am using Testing Forky.
I am trying to figure out how many distributions I can mounr in 500GB SATA hard disk.
I was happy with 19 but it has gone upto 14 due to Emmabantus and UBUNTU.
I won't try these methods on a machanical disk which burns the read and write heads.
I had a Old Laptop in Limbo.
The rest is my Linux History.
Gnome uses 1302 to 1303 files.
Abour half of that for GNOME and other half for System Utilities.
Any additional applications add to this file system and at its most 3300 odd. A substantial increase from 2000 odd it used to be.
I now use Network Install image which is inder 1GB.
