no swap? Come on..... you ONLY have 16 GB of RAM.:-)~MIKE~(-:On Tue, Jan 27, 2015 at 6:59 AM, Stephen Partington <cryptworks@gmail.com> wrote:My normal partition setup is usually /boot of about 1-2GB (excessive but i have run out of boot space before and it was ugly) and / and for mechanical HDD's 2-6gb swap depending on use/ram availability, for my recent install i have no swap and 16gb ram and running linux on an ssd.space used in home i would take a peek at how much "stuf" you have stashed there. and plan accordingly, but 20GB overall is usually enough for Linux depending on where you install/put things.On Mon, Jan 26, 2015 at 8:32 PM, Stephen M <smelheim85@gmail.com> wrote:If someone doesn't mind giving me an insight that would be helpful. Usually I have done 5-10GB for / and 2GB for swap and the rest for home. I want to see what others have tried in the past that has worked for them.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.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.
Thank you in advance.
