Xubuntu Disk Partitioning
The are two vital partitions :
- RootPartition aka "/" remaining space
- SwapPartition aka "swap" (2xRAM)
The
BootDirectory is sometimes part of / and sometimes in its own partition.
Although in theory it can be tiny I like to make it 100M to have space for multiple vmlinux kernel images, system-maps & initrd.img's
- BootPartition aka "/boot" ~100M
For example I have two different linux kernels on my system
$ ls /boot/*2* | cat
/boot/abi-2.6.15-27-386
/boot/abi-2.6.15-27-686
/boot/config-2.6.15-27-386
/boot/config-2.6.15-27-686
/boot/initrd.img-2.6.15-27-386
/boot/initrd.img-2.6.15-27-686
/boot/System.map-2.6.15-27-386
/boot/System.map-2.6.15-27-686
/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-27-386
/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.15-27-686
