I prefer to partion as follows: / = 10 - 20GB /home = 10 GB, unless your application will use this /swap = 4GB /var = 10GB - gives you enough space for plenty log files Use LVM, which allows you to shrink & grow partitions on the fly. -- Kind Regards Rudi Ahlers SoftDux Website: http://www.SoftDux.com Technical Blog: http://Blog.SoftDux.com Office: 087 805 9573 Cell: 082 554 7532
