    It depends very much on what you want to do. However, I would
    recommend 8G for / (what leaves about 6G for /usr).

    I suspect you will want to play around with the web server.
    Plan 16G for the system partition (/, /usr, /var, /tmp and swap).
    This will take you a long way before you start being tight on
    the edges.

    Hope it helps
        Olivier
