In my opinion, the third option of separate /usr, /var, /tmp/ /
home here
are wasted, as anybody that is going for that sort of option set are
probably going to go for the more fine-grained approach the 'Expert
Install' option caters to.
Agreed. How about a wishlist bug against d-i?
Yes, but at this stage, I'm just looking for opinions.
I don't want to waste developer's time with my imperfections.
People can kill me here before I do any damage.
Agreed.
I always do 'Entire disk' (even for servers) or custom partitioning
(e.g. RAID1 with separate /boot, or LVM).
Computed Partitions.
/ = 10 GB – Bootable ext3 – I would probably go for a little more
than
this, because the newbie appetite wants to try out everything!

Is this a guess or did you actually calculate the installed size?
Neither.
It's from personal experience.
The other two installs are this one I'm posting on = 2778 installed
packages, which was about 1000 more than that before I pared it down
- I
have a lot of font packages and editors for writing.
And a GUI-less system of just over 800 packages.
The truth and my experience is: You never can know.
I remember a desktop installation of Debian where I had to enlarge /
usr from 10 GB to 20 GB.
Other current examples of Squeeze:
- test-server without graphical system:
root@test:/# du1
[... some lines snipped ...]
6.7G ./var
107M ./lib
655M ./usr
7.5G total
- devel-server without graphical system:
root@dev:/# du1
[... some lines snipped ...]
102M ./home
5.6M ./bin
34M ./opt
959M ./usr
137M ./root
20G ./var
4.0M ./sbin
108M ./lib
25M ./etc
21G total
- plain/fresh Gnome:
3.1G total
