I have an 80gb hard drive that currently has 60gb in use for windows
(20gb for OS and apps + 40gb for mp3's, video.... etc ).
The remainder of space is about 14.5gb.
Which I would like to install OpenBSD 3.5 then use the NTLDR for a dualboot.

What sizes would be good for partitioning the remainder of space

/
swap (currently I have 768mb RAM)
/tmp
/var
/usr
/home

The setup would be intended for a home use
(web surfing, email, games, small web server for testing my html skills)

thanks in advance
