LVM sort of like an extended partition, in that other partitions reside within the logical volume. Here's what my drive looks like.

workstation:~ # df -h

/dev/sda1             2.1G  395M  1.7G  20% /
/dev/system/home      4.0G  809M  3.3G  20% /home

/dev/system/usr       6.3G  2.2G  4.1G  35% /usr
/dev/system/local     2.0G  103M  1.9G   6% /usr/local
/dev/system/var       2.0G  292M  1.8G  15% /var
tmpfs                 188M     0  188M   0% /dev/shm

/dev/system is the logical volume.

I see you don't use /boot. And you don't mount /tmp separately. /isos probably doesn't apply to me and I don't think I need /opt where obviously you do. Is Swap part of the LVM?


Given that, this is one recommended example of partitioning (LVM aside for the moment):

/boot
/
/home
/usr
/usr/local
/var

And now I'm leaning toward just putting /home on its own drive.
