unhappy with that. I think I'd skip separate /home if HD size less
than 19G.
So, something like this:
less than 19G -> up to 1G swap, balance /
19G-35G -> 8G /, up to 2G swap, balance /home
more than 35G -> 12G /, up to 4G swap, balance /home
I would go way beyond that. Don't users install additional applications?
I have more than 30GB of applications installed, though I will admit
that is probably far from typical. I think for under 80GB of space, it
should be a single partition. Over that, if you are going to go for this
crazy scheme ;), make / at least 20G.
I'd split at around 40G, with 20 for /.
However, as a user, I can say that I will always use a single partition
(as I have been doing since my HPUX and Solaris days).
How do you preserve your /home files when you upgrade? If you have a
spare machine with lots of space to rsync back and forth or some other
quick backup mechanism it's not a big deal, but not everyone has that.
