[expert] Hard Drive Paritioning Technique

[Nitin Raja Bhatia]

Hey All,

Most people develop a method or formula for Hard Drive Paritioning and
the different paritions?
My question is what do you guys do?

some people do just a "/" and swap parition. The swap twice the amount
of ram and the "/" as big as possible.  There must be some disadvantages
to this method.

What is your method/technique?
