linux server partition
 
this one has probably been run in the dirt, but i have to ask.

i am installing a linux redhat 7.3 server. I have a 100 gigabyte hard drive to use for this operation. Here is what i have come up with so far:

/boot 100mb
/usr 25,000 mb
/home 50,000 mb
/chroot 2500 mb
/cache 2500mb
/var 2500mb
<swap> 10000 mb
/tmp 2500mb
/ 2500mb


i realize some of these partitions are not right, this is why i am asking for help. I plan to host webpages allow email and run games on the box. any help here would be greatly appreciated.


thanks....wazirr

I think you can make smaller /boot (25MB should do).. Much depends where will be the webpages and emails kept. If all in /home, make it 50GB, if in /var, make it bigger. 200MB swap will be OK for sure (max 500MB, but not more).
