Hello,

Sysinstall(disklabel) still chooses a size of 20 MB for the /var
partition. This is, in my opinion, way too small since the installing of
packages uses /var/tmp (maybe adding a separate /var/tmp partition to
the defaults would be interesting?).

I've mentioned this also before the 4.4-RELEASE, but then there was too
little time to change it, and i just took a look at -STABLE, and it
isn't fixed there yet...

Hereby, again the suggestion to re-evaluate those values.

Also, maybe it's nice to have just one /tmp or /var/tmp partition as
explained in the tuning(7) manpage?

Greetings,

Jochem
