As you should be.
Here is a sample df: consider:
Filesystem 1K-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on
/dev/hda2 1052184 165524 886660 16% /
tmpfs 124044 12 124032 1% /dev/shm
/dev/hda1 54416 6337 45270 13% /boot
/dev/hda5 1052184 710996 341188 68% /home
/dev/hda8 4120508 529740 3590768 13% /opt
/dev/hda7 722852 35092 687760 5% /tmp
/dev/hda9 6168700 2531652 3637048 42% /usr
/dev/hda10 321200 70612 250588 22% /usr/local
/dev/hda6 722852 389936 332916 54% /var
You want at least these parts listed above... no I'm not going to argue
about it.
/usr/local is optional
My / root could have been smaller 300Mb works well... but for reasons I won't
go into here I made it 1GB.
/home should be mounted nosuid.
/var and /tmp should be a seperate parts
On my larger systems I will allocate smaller sizes for the standard parts (like
above) and then put the rest of the drive on /local, or /work. The above is from
my laptop....
The default partitioning on Suse is one of the distros few negatives. They
just don't do it right.
IMHO
Kind regards,
