However, I have installed it, but I really don't know what some say to have
/home inside the main big partition...so whatever be the reasons (to be
learned later).. but I have installed in this manner.

Morever, I just updated the system, but I don't know how to update Firefox,
its still 3.6.24. I thought updating via 'Update Manager' would update it
too but it dind't though Firefox is in default installation!

Thanks.
