Appendix A: Partitioning Layout Table: Mounting and Linking </A></H2> <P> <!-- disk!partitioning layout table!mounting and linking --> The following table is designed to make layout a simpler paper and pencil exercise. It is probably best to print it out (using NON PROPORTIONAL fonts) and adjust the numbers until you are happy with them. <P>Mount point is what directory you wish to mount a partition on or the actual device. This is also a good place to note how you plan to use symbolic links. <P>The size given corresponds to a fairly big Debian 1.2.6 installation. Other examples are coming later. <P>Mainly you use this table to select what structure and drives you will use, the partition numbers and letters will come from the next two tables. <P> <BLOCKQUOTE><CODE> <PRE> Directory Mount point speed seek transfer size SIZE swap __________ ooooo ooooo ooooo 32 ____ / __________ o o o 20 ____ /tmp __________ oooo oooo oooo ____ /var __________ oo oo oo 25 ____ /var/tmp __________ oooo oooo oooo ____ /var/spool __________ ____ /var/spool/mail __________ o o o ____ /var/spool/news __________ ooo ooo oo ____ /var/spool/____ __________ ____ ____ ____ ____ /home __________ oo oo oo ____ /usr __________ 500 ____ /usr/bin __________ o oo o 250 ____ /usr/lib __________ oo oo ooo 200 ____ /usr/local __________ ____ /usr/local/bin __________ o oo o ____ /usr/local/lib __________ oo oo ooo ____ /usr/local/____ __________ ____ /usr/src __________ o oo o 50 ____ DOS __________ o o o ____ Win __________ oo oo oo ____ NT __________ ooo ooo ooo ____ /mnt._________ __________ ____ ____ ____ ____ /mnt._________ __________ ____ ____ ____ ____ /mnt._________ __________ ____ ____ ____ ____ /_____________ __________ ____ ____ ____ ____ /_____________ __________ ____ ____ ____ ____ /_____________ __________ ____ ____ ____ ____ Total capacity: </PRE> </CODE></BLOCKQUOTE> <P> <P> <HR> <A HREF="Multi-Disk-HOWTO-22.html">Next</A> <A HREF="Multi-Disk-HOWTO-20.html">Previous</A> <A HREF="Multi-Disk-HOWTO.html#toc21">Contents</A> </BODY> </HTML>
