Well, the real issue is that you have to "partition" (so to speak :) ) your space up front. I personally devote 50 GB to /home and 25 GB to / . That's working out fine, and I still more than 20 GB free on both . I think a Logical Volume Manager could allow dynamic reallocation of these partitions, but I don't think that will be necessary.
