I am installing 2.2.8 on a system that has w95 pre installed and have
allocated 1G of a 4G drive ( a one drive system ) for freebsd. The
default partition allocations assigned by the disk editor were : /  32M
, swap 200M ,  /usr 700M, /var 40M, /xxx  40M - These are approximate
figures, they should be close enough for my questions:
1.) I attempted a full install which terminated when the install process
attempted to write outside of the partition assigned to / .  What size
partition is reasonable for root when doing a full install?
2.) 200M allocated to the swap partition seem excessive for my use.
comment?
