I think I could get my OS on a 30Gb SSD with no problem and plenty of
breathing room.
i had a 30Tb partition for my system in my old HDD, and the breathing
space wasn't quite "plenty". often i found myself with less than the 6Gb
free required by libreoffice to compile, and i had to clean up a bit.
other than that yes, 30Gb is more than enough. in this new SSD i just
installed i made a partition of 40Gb for / .
I have portages work directory on tmpfs so no issue there. My only
thing, I separate /, /usr, /var portages tree and such. Of course, if I
put them on LVM, except for / itself, then I can move things around a
bit and still not have a init thingy to deal with.
My current setup while snipping the useless stuff:
root@fireball / # mount
/dev/sda6 on / type ext4 (rw,commit=0)
/dev/sda1 on /boot type ext2 (rw)
/dev/mapper/OS-usr on /usr type ext4 (rw,commit=0)
/dev/mapper/OS-var on /var type ext4 (rw,commit=0)
/dev/mapper/home-home on /home type ext4 (rw,commit=0)
/dev/mapper/backup-backup on /backup type ext4 (rw,commit=0)
tmpfs on /var/tmp/portage type tmpfs (rw,noatime)
root@fireball / #
I may try to get a 60Gb or something tho, just in case. Depends on what
is on sale tho. ;-)
