I have a laptop with large SSD.(128gigs or 256gigs)
I want to intelligently partition it.
I will only be using it for linux OS.
I will likely have Ubuntu and CentOs (maybe a partition to play with other OS like Arch)
I have read some info regarding the UEFI setup.
I believe I can only have total four partitions?
1st partition primary for boot?
2nd partition primary swap ( for all Linux OS?)???
3rd partition extended
The following logical partitions:
3-1 would be ubuntu 6-10gig
3-2 would be centos 5-7gigs
3-3 would be fat32 - sharing loading, 5-20 gigs
3-4 would be ext4 - video/pics/audio files, 20-100gigs - how do I back this up???
Would this be needed as a partition? Could this be better as memory card( 32-64gig)?
Backup memory cards?
3-5 what of my home directory? should this be on separate partition?
I want to be able to easily backup partitions. Maybe using Clonezilla.
3-6 backup clone for ubuntu (mess with bootup if cloned?)
3-7 backup clone for centos
ANY information(links as well appreciated), especially UEFI.
If any part is unclear, or needs to be expanded, please let me know.
