This is the only partitioning scheme which in my opinion fits for
users who might go with whatever the default is:
/ Whole harddisk
swap none, but 512M swap file (independent of memory)
Rationale: I don't see any noticeable benefit for Jane User in having
lots of small partitions; and as has been pointed out it always either
wastes space or is prone to overruns.
Swap nowadays only serve to spill pages that haven't been accessed for
hours, or to slow down the system enough so you can kill processes
gone haywire; therefore, it is not performance critical and a swap
file will do just fine and is more flexible WRT resizing.
