I am installing Linux on my spare laptop and I have a question for the
experts.

Anyway, what are good disk partitions to use? I want to use this machine as
a development environment for Java and web stuff, as well as install Apache
and use it as a web server for my projects. I have a small network of
Windows machines, so this will be my private webserver/development
environment.

My hard disk is about 3.9 GB in total. When Redhat partitioned the hard disk
for the "server" configuration, it gave me the following:

Swap      204 M   hda9
/boot      19 M   hda1
/         259 M   hda7
/usr     1578 M   hda5
/home    1578 M   hda6
/var      259 M   hda8

Now, I only expect a few user accounts (I only have 5 people on my network,
and 3 are under the age of 9!). I plan to run servlets, multiple threads in
Java, etc, so do I have the right partitions?

Thanks!

Mark
