I would say 20GB on / and all the rest on ~/home, no matter what the real size is. With you it is 60GB, for me it would be 130GB.
Nice algorithm. Especially for a 20 GB Laptop, where 5 GB are reserved for other OS's.
There will be indeed situation where a seperate /home will not be practical. This does not mean you should take away the good practice for those situations where it IS good common practice. I also could see a situation where you can select if you want a seperate /home or not (with yes being the default) and a slidebar with a real number selector next to it to say how large you want it to have. The algoruthm could be something else. What is your proposal for a algoritm? 2/3rd of the available space with a minimal of X GB and maximal Y GB for /home and minimal X GB for /home. Again, I understand that the situation will not be ideal for everyone. It will be (in my opinion) still be better then what we have now. -- houghi http://www.opensuse.org/index.php/Making_a_DVD_from_CDs
