Hi all

I am planning to install FreeBSD 6.2 on my dell laptop with 80Gb HDD and 2G=
B
RAM. FreeBSD will be the only OS on the laptop. Laptop will be used to web
development (RubyOnRails), entertaiment (photo, music, video),
web browsing and emailing, so no server side task will be handled.

How you suggest to split 80GB between partitions to solve all laptop tasks.
Here is partitions:
/root
/var
/usr
/home
/swap

Thx
