Red Hat doesn't use all my hard drive space...



Morning all-

I searched the archives and did not find an answer, so be gentle if it has been asked before.

I have a computer that I am using to learn Red Hat on. It has two 30GB HD's that are completely empty. When I go to install Red Hat 9 or Severn, using the default installer options, it wants to format my hard drives as follows:

hda:

100MB as boot partition
29.something GB as /

hdb

1GB as swap
29.something as completely empty

Is there any reason why it does not assign anything to the 29 empty Gigabytes on the second drive? I can manually assign it to /home (or whatever), although that automatically bumps the swap partition to the first hard drive... Am I doomed to having to manually assign that extra space, or is there a reason that it doesn't use almost half the space available to it? Any information would be greatly appreciated,
