[QUOTE="colin.p, post: 1102117, member: 93980"] When I first started using ubuntu in "08, I religously did the usual separate partitions for /, home, swap, but after a couple of LTS upgrades, I said screw it and let the installer deal with it. Since I have used "Lucky Backup" to back up Home for years, I never lost anything (of too much importance) and got up and running on a new install lickity-split. Now, I still let the installer deal with it including whatever it does for swap. Not sure if it's a swap file or partition but I think it was 2GB and have never been bothered by whatever the installer did. [/QUOTE]
