Speaking of tuning, it should probably mention a swap partition
must be larger than RAM to support crash dumps, and /var needs to
have space for nxRAM dumps, where n is how many you want to keep.
I've seen too many people with 2G RAM and 1G swap, or a 1G machine
with crash dumps enabled and a 128M /var, as recomended.
