Hello group. Ok, I'm new to linux, and I'm about to install Redhat 8.0. I have purposely purchased and installed a second hard drive (80G). I have read various posts that /,/home & something else should be partitiioned (forgive my ignorance with directory names). So before I install Redhat 8, what size partitions do I assign to what directories (The whole 80G will be devoted to linux or could I effectively half it) Any advice would be appreciated.
