I just received my 7.1 CDs and installed Mandrake 7.1 with no apparent
problems!

However that was no feat because I just used the "recommended" install.
That installed everything together and I would prefer to have separate
partitions for various mounting points.

Prior to goinf the "recommended" install root I tried a custom install with
the following partitions:
/boot     10      MB
/opt        516   MB
/usr        1000 MB
/home     1000 MB
/             66     MB
/var        66    MB

but the install told me that did not give it enough space to install all the
packages.

Can someone tell me how large I need to make the various partitions to
install a standard, normal install (not development, etc.)?

Since this is a brand new install, I do not mind re-installing into separate
partitions if I only knew what sizes to make them.

Thank you.
