Mainly I just use it for / and swap, then make my own depending on the disk and function. When setting up the disk, you can enter 'a' for the defaults. Delete everything but / and swap. For your setup, I'd assume this won't be a production machine, just a desktop. So: / - default, should be around 50mb swap - default /tmp - 64mb /var - 256mb /mnt - can leave this out /usr - the rest. make this partition last Good luck, Nicolai On Fri, 8 Dec 2000, Zaitsau, Andrei wrote: > Hello everyone, > I have RTFM question :) > But anyway, > I have 2.1Gb Hard Drive. > Can someone advise me how much would be the perfect sizes > for filesystems: > / > /usr > /tmp > /var > /mnt > > If I want to use the whole disk, is that all file system I need(or I do not > need)? > Thanks.
