Best partitioning? - Comments and question

Hi,
thank you all for help and input.

I did the following:

the new HD, a Samsung SP2014N installed in an IBM PC300PL 6862-V20

After installing the HD I checked the BIOS configuration and saw that
the PC only recognized about 8,6 GB.

Well, could not figure out how to make the PC "see" the whole HD so I
continued to install FC3.

I used diskdruid and partitioned as follows:
/dev/hda1:  /boot  251MB
/dev/hda2:  LVM PV 190529MB

hda2:
/var	50016
/	10016
swap	4000
/home	89608
/usr	35008
/tmp	2010

~From what I can see I miss about 8 GB.

When rebooting I get the following error message:

1880 PCI/PNP Error
PXE M04

Then it looks for Network startup and after a while finds FC3 and boots.

Could it be that there is a hidden partition on the HD that diskdruid
did not see and format?

Any suggestions anyone?

Regards,
Truls
