Well, since some dirs, like /usr and /var vary from edition to edition, it is never clear what the size most optimal should be.. That is the point... If it was easy to rearrange the sizes, like with PQ PM, you could easily adapt the size to the needed size... That is why should be clear where the growth should be, so the size could be adapted in front..(because of the lack of a good partitioner..;-)
Well, /opt and /usr can be calculated (yast does it) Or if you want it Q&D, install the whole bunch as you think you might need it, with just a root partition, have a look what you need, and re-install it properly (opt & usr at 75%) /srv you can also plan ahead (mysql, apache, ldap, tftp, ...) /home is always a surprise /tmp auto-purge weekly /var/log is your own admin responsibility to keep tidy btw, i did mean ext3 for small partitions that varies, not ext2 or reiser: journaling is nice for systems that change. But a 100MB reiser-FS is filled for 30% with internal datastructures. For large partitions (>250GB) ext is a pita), it takes ages to make.
