Below is the HD partitioning in my newly installed RedHat 7.3.
I am planning to re-install Red Hat and add 2 GB to /home and /usr each
(b/c I will need to install Win4Lin by creating a Windows "partition" in
/home). I plan to cut the root and tmp partitions to 1 GB each.
Any comments?

Just one, why is your /var so big? at 13.5GB it's the biggest partition
on your system while being one of the least used. Unless you are
running a mail server or news server, /var is generally only used to
store logs and some config files.
