new hard drive setup

[Ralph E. Kenyon, Jr.]

Hi all,
I got my start in Linux with a pre-configured system, and I'm still a rank  
beginner.  My system is Redhat 9 kept up2date.

My original hard drive is small (8G) partitioned as follows:

    Device Boot    Start       End    Blocks   Id  System
/dev/hda1   *         1        13    104391   83  Linux
/dev/hda2            14       995   7887915   83  Linux
/dev/hda3           996      1027    257040   82  Linux swa

My hard drive is nearly full, so I bought another one - 60G.
It's in, and I was able to see it with fdisk, but I haven't done any  
partitioning or formatting yet - I never did such things before.

What I'm looking for is suggestions as to what would be a good way to  
partition it, and possibly what to put on it.

Suggestions welcome.
