-The following is a list of important considerations regarding
-directories and partitions. Note that disk usage varies widely given
-system configuration and specific usage patterns. The recommendations
-here are general guidelines and provide a starting point for
-partitioning.

-The root partition <filename>/</filename> must always physically
-contain <filename>/etc</filename>, <filename>/bin</filename>,
-<filename>/sbin</filename>, <filename>/lib</filename> and
-<filename>/dev</filename>, otherwise you won't be able to boot.
-Typically 150&ndash;250MB is needed for the root partition.
-
-</para></listitem>
-<listitem><para>
-
-<filename>/usr</filename>: contains all user programs
-(<filename>/usr/bin</filename>), libraries
-(<filename>/usr/lib</filename>), documentation
-(<filename>/usr/share/doc</filename>), etc.
-This is the part of the file system that generally takes up most space.
-You should provide at least 500MB of disk space. This amount should
-be increased depending on the number and type of packages you plan
-to install. A generous workstation or server installation should allow
-4&ndash;6GB.
-
-</para></listitem>
-<listitem><para>
-
-<filename>/var</filename>: variable data like news articles, e-mails,
-web sites, databases, the packaging system cache, etc. will be placed
-under this directory. The size of this directory depends greatly on
-the usage of your system, but for most people will be dictated by
-the package management tool's overhead. If you are going to do a full
-installation of just about everything &debian; has to offer, all in one
-session, setting aside 2 or 3 GB of space for
-<filename>/var</filename> should be sufficient. If you are going to
-install in pieces (that is to say, install services and utilities,
-followed by text stuff, then X, ...), you can get away with 300&ndash;500
-MB. If hard drive space is at a premium and you don't plan on doing
-major system updates, you can get by with as little as 30 or 40 MB.

-
-<filename>/tmp</filename>: temporary data created by programs will
-most likely go in this directory. 40&ndash;100MB should usually
-be enough. Some applications &mdash; including archive manipulators,
-CD/DVD authoring tools, and multimedia software &mdash; may use
-<filename>/tmp</filename> to temporarily store image files. If you
-plan to use such applications, you should adjust the space available
-in <filename>/tmp</filename> accordingly.
-
-</para></listitem>
-<listitem><para>
-
-<filename>/home</filename>: every user will put his personal data
-into a subdirectory of this directory. Its size depends on how many
-users will be using the system and what files are to be stored in
-their directories. Depending on your planned usage you should reserve
-about 100MB for each user, but adapt this value to your needs. Reserve
-a lot more space if you plan to save a lot of multimedia files (pictures, MP3, movies)
-in your home directory.
