You ALWAYS want to break up your mount points, this minimizes file corruption and keeps the / partition safer. I would, personally, do the following if I had your config, depending on your memory I would add the appropriate SWAP as well AD0: / 750 SWAP The rest AD1: SWAP 500MB /var: 2GB /tmp: The rest (symlin /var/tmp to this) AD2: SWAP: 500MB /usr: 5GB /home: 3GB /data: The rest. I would put your apache data and mysql data and all that stuff in a sub directory on here. Thats just me :) Henrik On Thursday 15 November 2001 15:10, brain_damaged wrote: > Currently I have two freebsd 4-3 machines running > postfix and some scripts with it to stomp on spam. > In my learning freebsd process I installed mysql,apache,php ,webmin and > phpnuke on one.
