FWIW I add my opinion on this topic. Somebody was asking since many people 
will be having many different kinds of requirements - some downloading movies 
and torrents, and some not, I think this will be OK:

1. Calculate the req space for the full install. Add 1 to 2 GB to that for 
stuff that the user may install themselves. Assign this for /.

2. Calculate the swap in the way it is calculated presently. (I'm running 2 GB 
swap and it is never used after my 512 MB RAM.)

3. Assign all remaining HD space to home.

This way, nobody even who downloads huge torrents or movies can complain that 
their home folder is insufficient, since even if they had had no 
separate /home partition, they would not have been able to store their 
torrents etc after installing SuSE.

Or maybe a small change in 1: Calculate the req space for the install that the 
user has selected and then allow 1 to 2 GB. I would think that anyone who 
needs a full install will usually be someone who can do the partitioning 
themselves.

What do others think?
