- 500mb-600mb fat32 /boot partition
- 40gb - 100gb ext4 or btrfs / partition (if you know you're gonna install a lot of software, go bigger)
- 1x - 2x ram as swap
- rest of disk as ext4 /home partition
Why not BRTFS for the /home partition?
I haven't had swap since I started using 32GB of ram and I've been fine. Might be worthwhile to use LVM for a more adjustable partitioning just in case. I made the mistake of making root 50G and I've been fighting with it for a while.
swap is there so u can hibernate rather than shutdown
Yeah, 32g is barely enough for what I do daily at work, so I have similar amount of ram combined with similar amount of swap file so I can safely hibernate even when the ram is full.
