How bad is my partitioning?
(lemmy.ml)
I just got a new laptop and installed Linux on it. I mainly run OpenSUSE.
Getting full encryption on both was a bit of a challenge and I had no idea what I'm doing. Will having the swap partition in the middle break things? Did I really need so many partitions (Mint and OpenSUSE don't show up in eachother's boot menu)?
I'm probably not gonna change this layout (because reinstallation seems like a pain) unless the swap partition's position is a problem. I'm just curious how many mistakes I made.
EDIT: I'm not upgrading my drive capacity. I do not need it.
I do not need more space. I need 25GB per Linux system and 64GB for Windows (which I'm going to backup anyway), plus 20GB of data.
I may keep Windows 10 on my Desktop too. It's nowhere near as scary as Windows 11.
Ok, sure, you do you. Simply offering a way to do this that works well for me.
