I have a DP Pentium III server that I have installed OpenVZ on thats running debian sarge (3.1). I currently have 8GB for / 1GB for Swap and the rest for /var I am going to host websites using a control panel of (Know Clue Yet) and was wondering if I should change things before I get started. I also forgot to do a /boot partition cause I was in a hurry. Should I go back and do this? As far as the hosting panels go I have look and tried the following Zpanel VHCS ispconfig and I am waiting on the first 2 to get out the next release. I had ISPconfig working and it seemed to do what I wanted but lacked the billing that I wish that it had. Many thanks for the replies.
A /boot partition is not necessary. Your partitioning depends on where you want to store the biggest amount of data.
