I know it has been said /dev/hda2 is available for developer use (and won't be overwritten by upgrades) but does anyone know what /dev/hda3 is tagged for? It doesn't appear to be a swap partition, but I'm not convinced it is not being used.

Is it also available for developer use?

hda3 is the dynamic data partition. Things like the current playlist gets saved here so that the empeg car continue where it left off. It's not suitable for developer use - it'll get overwritten by the player. It is also in our own custom format, as it's written to at runtime.

You *can* swap to a read-only partition though, and there is a swapfile (of 8M) in /dev/hda1.
