Disk Partitioning for Newbies (everything you always wanted to know)
Guten Abend.
In the last week I've seen a lot of question and recommendations
about disk partitioning. However, one answer was missing: for
your first install use only a swap partition and /. Play. Have
fun. Learn Linux. Install stuff. Learn stuff. Get rid of stuff
you didn't like. After a few weeks of use you look up how much
space you really need for /usr /var /home, etc. That's it.
Backup everything. (You do backups, don't you?) Re-partition
your hard drive. Have more fun :-)
Cheers,
Nils
