We'd like a show of hands to see if folks prefer the "old" style default with 4 partitions and swap, or the newer iteration with 1 partition and swap.

I've been doing Unix 30+ years, so there's a tendency to respond "Multiple", 'cos seeing a single 1 partition on a system normaly meant it had been set up by someone clueless or lazy. Though not always, as there could very occasionaly be good reason for it. ... & ZFS now muddies the water. However whichever way ...

Let the majority decide which layout is preferred for the default.

No. Bad idea. Not on questions@, the list of the least clued up, the list raw beginners are referred to subscribe to. At least get a majority on hackers@ or current@ or arch@. Some answers one sees on questions@ are very good, but some are ... the other way.

Cheers, Julian
