Not being able to get a largish number of partitions has bitten
me fairly badly.  What do I want out of a large disk, which is
the only disk in a given machine?
	/
	swap
	/usr
	/var
	/usr/src
	/home
	/usr/home
Well, that'd better be it; if I start wanting a separate spool space,
for email and ftp, or I want a /usr/local, or worse, both, I may be
out of luck.

There are at least three or four other partitions I frequently like
to add to a system...

(BTW, /home and /usr/home lets me keep the accounts of authority
figures separate from the accounts of end-users, so they can't
run me out of space, and I can't run them out of space.)
