Hello, I'm doing an installation of Linux for an older system, new to installing Linux of any kind. I'm trying to keep the main drive as clean as possible, as it's a 60GB SSD. I want everything other than the OS to install/default to a 1TB HDD. I saw in another forum post to do 'something else' when it came to chosing what to do with the drive/partitions.
My confusion now comes in when selecting mount points. I've set the /boot to my 60GB SSD, and /home to the 1TB HDD. But there's a ton of other locations which I can't specify where to put. /usr and /usr/local seem like good things to move to the 1TB HDD since from my searching, that's where program files are put.
There's also other mount points like /tmp, /var, /srv and, /opt. Where are those put? In the folder of /boot or along with /home?
If I specify /usr to go to a drive, would /usr/local not also be included? Are the /usr folders normally located within the /home?
