[Asterisk-Users] Linux Partitions (before asterisk install)

Will you be doing much recording? 2GB (/var) is very small for that.
If no recording, then no big deal, but the logs for asterisk do go to
/var as well and can grow rather large in high-volume. In my
experience you can live with 5GB or less on /usr.
