For your /boot it has to be enough to contain your distro's boot information commonly ~100MB. Your swap should be 2X or 3x you available RAM, say for eample you have 256MB of RAM recommended is 512MB or above. Now some other distros are particular about their partitioning scheme aside from the basics above but it'll all boil down to one which is your root partition / where you'll most likey alot the remaining space. I say, read the specific distro installation instruction you'll find more detailed info on this. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mhac Janapin" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "The Main Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Discussion List" <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, September 29, 2005 10:13 PM Subject: [plug] Re: good partitioning practice here's mine: /boot 100MB /home 5000MB / 14388MB swap 512MB (2x RAM @ 256MB) On 9/29/05, June G.
