1 I want to build a Gentoo server box whose structure is
2 highly-partitioned, like this:
3
4 /
5 /boot
6 /usr
7 /tmp
8 /usr/portage ==> via NFS
9 /var
10 /var/lib/postgresql
11 /var/tmp
12 /var/log
13 /var/spool
14
15 (Not all of them will reside on the same physical disk; I have
16 /dev/sda up to /dev/sdd)
17
18 I've been searching high and low for recommended numbers... and there
19 are as many number as search-hits.
20
21 So. Care to share your partitioning strategy?
22
23 (And while we're at it, am I overdoing the partitioning?)
