Question on INST and disk setup
Setting up Irix 6.5 - one thing I found confusing.

When inst is asking to setup the disk - it looks like you can pick

rootdisk
userdisk
optiondisk

- which seems to correspond to / , /usr and /opt?

But selecting each one seems to overwrite the current disk (dsk0).

Do you need to have 3 disks and set each one up for root, usr and opt?

I'm pretty familiar with setup and partitioning for Linux- and normally you setup the partitions on the disk you have, Inst seems to be doing it very differently.
