henderrob Posted July 14, 2003 Share Posted July 14, 2003 2 G for /2+ G for the /home partition500 MB for the /swap ( more swap is waste )Just a question. I have 512MB RAM and Mandrake install set swap drive to 496MB. My question is, according to KSim, I never use the sway drive, does it need to be so big?

BrunoHow would I do this in Linux? Should I use Partition Magic v4. (It's the one I have). It definitely seems even with 512 RAM XP swaps more often.
