here is a partition breakdown that I find very good
/boot = 10MB
/ = 100MB
/usr = 900MB
/home = 300MB (depending on amount of users obviously, for just a few uses
this is fine)
SWAP = ~100MB (or 1.5 times your physical RAM, I have 64 MB so 64 X 1.5 =
~100) You need 1.5 X pysical RAM for complete core dump
-------------------------------
total = ~1400MB
