even on my most bloated install / is only taking up 19MB as for /boot there was just a mention on -devel on how seperate /boot screws up grub. (the ranting over there on just how much grub rocks has convinced me to try it whenever i happen to feel like rebooting my intel box) > the thing one should really watch out for is /var since on a particularly busy > box it could get really big (shows you my box is idle still :) ) quite true, but workstations generally don't have busy logs, unless your also using it as a server which is not really the best of ideas. if i have the space i usually give /var about 2GB, no less then that on a server. -- Ethan Benson http://www.alaska.net/~erbenson/
