hi,

I received a donation of a notebook w 4 GB of RAM for our schools project.
 I want to install /home in a separate partition.  I will be using Ubuntu
10.10 as the distro.  I have been told that the rule of thumb is as follows:

10 gig+ for /
2xRAM for swap
Rest for home

Are there any traps for the unwary that I should know about?  I have never
personally done this before, although I have seen it done.  Thx.
