Typical partition table for Debian?
I'm having installation issues on a new box, and i'm second-guessing
myself a little bit, so here goes:
What's a "typical" partition table look like for a Debian box?
I thought that the minimum would be:
/boot around 100-200 mb
swap around 1-2x RAM (in this case, 2 gig)
/ everything else...
I know you can do separate partitions for /var or /home or whatever,
depending on your application needs, but am I correct in that the above
is the MINIMUM and LEAST COMPLEX parition scheme?
The problem that I'm trying to track down is with the Beta 4 Debian
Installer and it appears that it DOESN'T create the /boot partition when
you let it partition automatically.....
Instead, it creates just:
swap around 1-2x RAM (in this case, 2 gig)
/ everything else...
Notice no /boot partition at all.... so where would Grub and the kernel be?
