partitioning - What are the advantages and disadvantages of creating a /usr partition for a desktop environment (16.10)? - Ask Ubuntu


i have 25 gb root partition (in addition separate /tmp, /var, /swap, , /home partitions), , wondering gain/lose splitting 25 gb 15 gb /usr partition , 10 gb root partition (or other distribution)?

i advice not spread system directories on more 1 disk. creating more points of failures: if hdd dies can not boot system. if hdd slow boot system might reach mounting, not see /usr or /var , crash. if ssd dies can not boot , /usr , /var become useless.

besides that: hdd kill boot time.

i myself keep system on /, maybe create /home/ on , put user data on hdd (you can change directories in /home/$user/ data partition. makes easier maintain, , makes easier backup (all need backup data partition).

mind though, regarding desktop. server version has website, dataserver, mailserver or similar might smart put /var on different disk (since talking userdata in /var) or @ least set such user data (also) on hdd.
