ACK. This will also keep fragmentation down and thus performance
Hi again,
I have 10G HD which I would like to use for my new LVM2 install
following this guide:
http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/lvm2.xml
I've decided to go with this doc using my physical partitions for /boot
/swap and / and give the rest to LVM.
So partitions /usr /home /opt /var /tmp will be

With only 10GB in total, running so many partitions is bound to
1. Boot should be at most ext3, but ext2 is just fine (the only thing on this
partition is kernel images and grub stages). Keeping to this will mean less
problems at boot time (grub users can tell you nightmares about
reiserfs /boot partitions, and I'd guess that jfs would be in the same

Thanks for your reply. So, if that were your system, how much space you
would give to /boot /swap / ( eliminating /opt) /home /var /tmp and /usr?
I just need rough numbers, so that my fresh install wouldn't get in trouble.
I have 256 RAM and this is 10GIGs. Thanks again.

Ah, but it is a disaster waiting to happen. If you fill your root partition
you'll have difficulty

I know that there isn't much of a reason for a Reiser boot partition,
but I ended up doing that anyway, but no problems at all with grub.
Maybe problems were with older versions of the bootloader.
The problem is reiserfs itself. It needs a
