Thanks! Lembas and Magic Banana,
I was reviewing the Debian doc and saw a big error in my thinking, I thought
it had suggested /usr be on a separate partition but it never does.
...one more partition whose use is to be estimated to avoid
under/over-dimensioning
but
Any directory tree
I didn't see your input MB and Lembas
My Trisquel was dieing. First time it hung instead of shutting down, then
would only boot 3.13 kernel which messes with my resolution. Then wouldn't
boot at all at least in part because certain file systems (/tmp and /var/log)
were mounting read only.
Thanks for the input Magic Banana, hope I do not exasperate!
My Trisquel Desktop seems to be pretty close to hosed right now so I'm back
in Centos7. Looks like I'll be reinstalling sooner than I wanted.
You know that LVM is not a type of filesystem, right?
Well, uh no. Sorry to be a dunce.
I think the /usr could be still a bit larger. I take it you don't plan to
hibernate? Will still be a single user desktop or something else?
Thanks M B and ST83 for lending your experience!
Thanks to alejandro_blue for opening the post. I read it posted in usarios
'tambien' where the KISS advice suggested in your second link was also given.
Based on multiple councils, I think I will go with something like this (with

It wouldn't **prevent** you from using popcorntime. Unless maybe you stream
a 1080p movie that is 4 hours long..
But yeah - better make it 3 gb or 4 gb. That way you can stream 2 fullhd
movies without having to close and reopen popcorntime in between
:)
For solid state it should not matter. On the spinning disk I guess it depends
on your usage pattern. Do you share partitions? Is the data of the most
frequently used distro more important than the root of the least used distro?
Do you hibernate?
/boot is kinda tricky, if you hibernate
Thanks again. I did the tests you suggested me on your first post. Mine is
spinning disc.
It's an interesting subject and I'll be glad to learn more about it.
Yes, it is.
Do you share partitions? Yes
Is the data of the most frequently used distro more important than the root
of the least
I've been thinking about this too. I had Centos and Fedora installed and had
given them the lion share of a 1 TB hd. Then I found Trisquel and gave it the
rest (about 130 GB). Now I'm thinking to start over.
I like Trisquel 7 very much and would use it by default most of the time. I
might do
Thanks a lot Lembas, that explanation was very graphical... hahahaha.
Taking in account your experience, what partition table scheme would be
better for install three GNU/Linux systems in a spinning disk? What for a
solid sate?
Do you think it's necessary make a partition for the /boot?
All this is relevant for old fashioned spinning disks, modern solid state
drives should have uniform performance.
This should prove useful

I.e. the speed is fastest at the edge.
