[Techtalk] /usr Partition

[Sue Stones]

Did I reply to just you, I had intended it to go to the list! Sorry

I think it depends upon what other partitions you have and how you are 
going to use your Linux.  What I did was use only 2 partitions, one for 
/usr (which includes /var) and one for /home .  I divided the space I 
had in half. 

I found this worked for me because otherwise either /usr or /var ran out 
of space.  I don't do much sys admin, I found this worked for me, and I 
was able to get on with my studies without problems.
