As far as I know, is good to create partitions for that directories. Example: /var is a log directory, if it is in the / (root) partition it will consume megas and megas of disk. If the disk if full and an application tries to create a log file it will halt your system. So a good strategy is to put /var in a separate partition.
I want to know if a linux without a server running creates a lot of logs to fill a 500MB partition, or it is a good size for /var partition. About /tmp that handle temporary files, a 1GB partition is ok ? Regards, Rodrigo.
