Mandrake 8.0 partitions
Hi
I have a 6GB HD and i want to install mandrake 8.0. My CPU is intel pentium III 450 and i have 128 MB RAM. I have been reading some info regarding setting up partitions when installing Linux and so far i understand that:
/boot = 20-25 MB
/swap = amount of RAM
leave the rest for /root.
however i have also read that you should create partitions for:
/home
/usr
/var
/opt
I am the only user on this machine.
Can someone advise me on a good partition setup ?
thanks for ur help
