I am about to embark on HD recovery (the disk is in the mail literally).

I want to restructure my HD to multiple partitions, so I wanted to throw
out how you would set up a harddisk.

Current:

/
/boot
/data   (my scrap area)


I was thinking of going

/
/var
/usr
/home
/data

Would you include any more than this?

With 256 Meg on board what size swaps would you use?  how many?  I
currently have about 128 (will recheck this) and I dont think I use it
that much.  Is there a lot of point going bigger?

How big would you set the relative sizes?  (40 gig, double original)

This is fuzzy for me, I would like to discuss on the list about the need
for partitions as the Linux Workshop is coming up...
