Hi, I am installing Suse Linux 7.3 on my G4 450. I have it running now, but I'm not sure a single/lonely 10 GB root parition is the best way to go! Suse tech support says it isn't a problem, but their installer has some dialog that says it is a problem. Who can I trust? (macosx.com of course)
Any way, here is the question - I can dedicate 10 GB to Linux on my second drive. I saw another post where billbaloney said he set up his partitions as:
/
swap (I got this one on my own)
/var
/tmp
/usr
/home
I think I like this, but I'm not sure how much space to give to each! This is what I need to know.
Again, 10 GB total for a single user set up and I'll be spending most of my time installing various packages (that don't yet run on XDarwin), fooling around with Perl and just learning about Linux. So - heavy on the apps for one user. Thanks in advance!
