I would like to have two additional partitions, but do not see in the
Handbook their ordering, relative to the above:

/boot
/home

Thanks,

Hi there, Barry...


If you're going to create separate partitions for /boot and /home, it seems that the following order would make sense:

/
/boot
swap
/var
/tmp
/usr
/home

HOWEVER, given that the default installation of FreeBSD seems to have /home as a link to /usr/home, I'd be highly reluctant to depart from that, and just keep the user home directories where they belong, in /usr/home.

Your mileage may vary.
