I have about 5.2 gig in use in the root system (both gnome and kde and numerous other biggies) and .5 gig in a separate /home filesystem. /home is a good candidate for a separate fs, especially if you like to collect lots of photos or mp3 files. Other than that, whatever you like. My usage would rise to 5.5gig or more, except that I keep /usr/portage/distfiles and /var/tmp/portage cleaned out on a regular basis. -- Collins Richey - Denver Area if you fill your heart with regrets of yesterday and the worries of tomorrow, you have no today to be thankful for. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
