Sorry for the top post. I use F17 without LVM. My HD is fdisked as follows /boot 500 MB / 10 GB /home 300 GB /swap 3 GB I do not like LVM since it came out. If you install a lot of programmes, you might want to use 15 or 20 GB for /.

Over the last couple of years I've managed to install Fedora a few times minus LVM but I never seem to get the directory structure optimized, in fact far from it. What I need is an example of a simple directory tree with the proper sizes. I may not get to try it until F-19 is released but would like to have an example on hand, might be inspired to try redoing an F-18 LVM installation.
