[ale] VM guest partitioning practices

[james.sumners at gmail.com (James Sumners)]

I've been asked to research how others layout their filesystems in virtual
machines. I long ago decided it wasn't worth splitting stuff like /var off
onto its own partition. I particularly don't think it's necessary in a
virtual machine. But I need to get some other opinions before I can be
validated in mine.

So, how do you guys partition the filesystems in your virtual machines?

personalities. It is not that power corrupts but that it is magnetic to the
corruptible. Such people have a tendency to become drunk on violence, a
condition to which they are quickly addicted."
