### Basic Structure ## I have 2 SSDs in my laptop, one 256gb and 512gb. The configuration I want is to keep my data on 512gb and OS(es) on 256gb (multiple distros hopefully). My question is about how to best partition my disks. I don't planning on using Windows with this config, so no problems about that. Specifically, should I - make a separate / and /home when I'm keeping my data in a separate drive (and symlink the folders). - make different /boot for the distros so it is easy to delete just one later without messing with others. - make a different /swap for each distro or just use one common partition ## My planned distros ## I am not sure how useful this is while answering, but my plan is to keep one stable distro like Fedora Silverblue, while I distrohop and use stuff like void linux, arch, openSuse as my other distro. ### My experience ### Again, cannot comment on how relevant this is, but I have been using Linux for the past year or so, and I have some elementary proficiency ie I can troubleshoot a bit and am not completely new to the terminal. Let me know if any more information is needed. Thanks
