Thanks to Nick and others, I have an update.  I left
out SWAP as well.

/ - 200MB
/swap - 200MB ?
/tmp - 200MB
/usr - 1.5GB
/home - 500MB
/var - 500MB

Rest spare for later.  Oh, I'm going to use qmail and
ezmlm for the mail and list server so email will be
delivered into their home directory using  Maildir.

I know swap used to be 2x the memory, but does that
still hold with 256MB RAM installed ? as opposed to
years ago with 32MB or 64MB ?

Thanks for the hints/suggestions
