While I'm here, I figure I'd share how I end up partitioning most of the
server systems I maintain. I use this general "formula" when building a
new system, unless it's a 4-disk box (see bottom of mail):

Hi,
I just noticed somthing: I setup an 8.0-RELEASE amd64 box, / is default
512M. First step after setup was to csup to RELENG_8 and buildkernel and
buildworld (no custom kernel, no make.conf).
Instaling the new kernel failed, since /boot/kernel/ is already well
over 230 MBytes in size. moving
