hi ,
I have a 40gb hdd , 128mb ram , pentium 4 1000mhz
hp pc
of the 40gb i have made two logical partitions
, of 22 gb & 18gb
22gb is reserved for windows xp , & on 18gb I
wish to install Linux 8.0 ,
i want to have a dual boot & keep the windows
xp as it is till I learn more & feel comfortable with Linux as I am new
to this.
please if someone can guide me to partition
the 18gb for installing Linux
I have downloaded the psyche-i386-iso images &
created 3 cds reqd for installation , please reply me with the calculation as to
how much is reqd for diff partitions in linux
what are the partitions i should create , & how
much each partition should be allocated
is there any calculation by which it becomes
easy to allocate the reqrd space for the said partitions
should i create all the partitions as mentioned
below or is there anything else i should know please guide me

/boot
/home
/swap
/usr
/usr/local
/tmp
/var
Have a nice day
