-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Daryl, I have four versions of Linux on my main machine and each uses only three partitions: /, swap and /home I see no need for others unless you wish to separate /tmp and /usr but I think that this is overkill.
So, to answer your question, I recommend just two partitions (/ and swap) on the smaller drive with /home on the larger as you propose.
