I have installed fbsd 2.2.5 from floppies on my old 386. The master drive is 200 MB with a small DOS partition and the rest partitioned for fbsd. The second drive is 540 MB with a single fbsd partition. In allocating space on the small drive, I used the automatic setting so that the system established the size of /, /var and swap. The rest (89 MB) was assigned to /usr. But as such I can't assign /usr to the larger drive. Or, if I do, the smaller drive is left with 89 MB of unused space. At present, I don't intend to use this installation for networking. I am merely trying to learn a new and well-known os. I may want to be an X-user at some point, but for now I'm tired of GUI's. I would appreciate info on the optimum filespace allocation for each drive. Given the suggestion, I think that I can handle the actual setup OK. TIA.
