I use the following layout on 5 Debian boxes. All of my machines have either 16 or 32 megs of memory. One of them has X11R6 on it with a few X apps; and even that box has over 60MB free on /usr. / 32MB swap 32MB /usr 256MB /var 64MB /tmp 64MB /home the read of the disk The root partition could be reduced to 24MB with no real danger of filling up; but I'd rather spend the 8MB of disk and not have to worry about it. The partition needing the most thought is /var. You have to decide how much mail will pass through the box; and if you are going to allow large, multi-megabyte messages. Given this, you might consider increasing /var to 96 or 128 megs. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Trouble? e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
