I may be installing other applications but nothing as intense as Xorg. If at all, I'll probably just install some network monitoring tools. I'm placing all of these roles on a single system because it is only for my lab. I have a 160 GB to use and I'm thinking about laying out the partition= s as follows: Part Size / 10G - for both the / and /usr files (swap) 2G /var 10G - Web server, print spool, other log files?? /var/mail 10G - for all mail files and easy backup /home 50G - for all user files /home/teo 40G - For my files and easy backup *The rest of the space I'll leave unused in case I need to grow a partition I'm new to FreeBSD/*Nix so all criticism is welcome.
