I am using the new partition to creat a Linux from Scratch system. Has anyone experience of this?
Yes, although it depends how much "from scratch" you mean. I started with a few choice things precompiled (like the compiler! and X, as my machine was not *that* fast) but built most of the rest and used GNU Stow to keep it all under control. A very useful learning experience for people interested in how the system hangs together, but not really for general use ;-)
