@tortoise Imagine spending years to give xomputer users the freedom to use a computer, working for that goal for over a decade, then someone (Linus torvalds) helps you just a bit (creating the Linux kernel), and then most people give the credit to him
This is what sir Richard M. Stallman @rms did.
Linux refers to the kernel, GNU/Linux is the entire OS. So the correct question would be "How do y'all setup ur GNU/Linux partitions?"

Whether or not the #Firefox obnoxious "Terms of Use" actually come into effect, the @mozillaofficial corporate management have shown us their arses. We cannot trust them again.
The current leadership of #MozillaCorp have failed the primary job of that organisation:
