Can anyone suggest a partitioning scheme for a new FC4 installation? 
Every time I make a bunch of partitions I end up with too much free 
space on some and not enough on others (notably /usr and /home).

Master is 20 GB and slave is 6 GB. I think I'll partition the slave as 
/backupdrive -- that's worked well for me on another machine - .jpg's, 
.ogg's et al.

How about
swap 500 MB (I have 256 MB RAM)
/boot 256 MB
/ the remainder
?
