Re: Minimum size for /home?
Pairing /home with either / or data files offers the greatest
flexibility, but it doesn't accomplish what I'm trying to do. On the
other hand, maybe I'm just trying to do it the hard way.
I looked at a handful of machines here and observed that a single user's
home contained at least 640 MB of files. That's a machine on which
Debian Lenny had been loaded recently and had never been connected to
the Internet.
I'm leaning toward allocating 1 GB for each /home. Does that sound
reasonable? It seems way too large to me. I suppose that if I later
find that such a large /home isn't necessary, I could set aside a
directory in /home to be used for data storage that didn't need to be
shared. At least that way I wouldn't be wasting space.
