Default partitioning
Hi all,
Can someone tell me what the default partitioning is for Ububtu?
I have not used it for years because i have always found that upgrades have screwed something up.
It used to be that /home was not on it's own partition so a fresh install would mean having to restore it from backup.
As I have been using my own partitioning scheme since around 7.x i have no idea what the default is now anyway.
I have set up ubuntu for several friends and family and have always used the following:
/
/var
/tmp
/home
each on it's own partition.
Oh, and of course a swap area
Each new install has been this way and all partitions formatted except /home each time.
If I knew enough about how it is set up I could edit the system and create my own disc so it did it
that way without me having to do a manual setup.
