Yesterday I bought a new laptop and installed 11.4. As it is long ago when I installed OpenSuse last time, I followed the suggestion to create only three Linux partitions: Win7 167 GB (shrinked by the Installation CD) Swap 2 GB / 20 GB /home 260 GB (the remainder) Normally I would have created a much larger number of Linux partitions, for instance: Win7 167 GB (shrinked by the Installation CD, as above) Swap 2 GB / 10 GB /usr 20 GB /opt 10 GB /var 5 GB /tmp 5 GB /boot 0.09 GB /srv 60 GB /data 60 GB /local 60 GB /home 52 GB Does that make sense? Or is it only a waste of space, since the partitions cannot be filled completely? Thanks in advance for your suggestions.
