Hi All,
I need to reinstall a new OS on my laptop because Mint 17.1 keeps having trouble downloading packages sometimes. Mostly it says that 'a template for "rebecca" could not be found.' So the release is just having growing pains.
Onto my question though, I want to install something else but want to know about partitioning my drive. I have not gotten into LVMs so I need to read up on those before trying. I know that it depends but I would like some options. I have a 250 GB drive, I am wanting to make a separate /, home, var, tmp, and usr directories. I am looking for a possible percentage of whats best works for a home computer more or less.
