The current mininum sizes are:
/ 128M (alpha,ia64,sparc64,amd64)
/ 118M (everything else)
swap 32M
/usr 160M
/var, /tmp, /home 20M
Defaults are:
/ 512M
/usr 8G
/var 1G
/tmp 512M
/home 8G
If the defaults can't be met, we try the following values before falling
back to the minimum:
/ 256M
/usr 1.5G
/var 128M
/tmp 128M
/home 1.5G
This information in sysinstall/label.c.
