Robert SokolowskiArch Linux is a very advanced Linux distro. This makes the installation process and initial setup processes very understandable.

If required, a hard disk shall contain only one extended partition; which shall then be sub-divided into logical partitions.
-
Historically, the general rule for swap partition size was 2x the amount of physical RAM. Over time, as computers have gained ever larger memory capacities, this rule has become increasingly deprecated. Generally, on machines with up to 512MB RAM, the 2x rule is usually quite sufficient. On machines with 1GB RAM, generally a 1x rule is adequate.
-
at least equal in size to the amount of physical RAM
-
Besides /boot, directories essential for booting are: '/bin', '/dev', '/etc', '/lib', '/proc' and '/sbin'. Therefore, they must not reside on a separate partition from /.
-
6-8 Gigs on a desktop system should therefore be sufficient for /var.
-
From the guidelines above, the example system shall contain a ~15GB root (/) partition, ~6GB /var, 1GB swap, and a /home containing the remaining disk space.
-
JFS currently uses the least CPU resources of any GNU/Linux filesystem. Very fast at formatting, mounting and fsck's, and very good all-around performance, especially in conjunction with the deadline I/O scheduler.
-
XFS offers very fast throughput on large files and large filesystems.
-
Generally benchmarked as slower with many small files,
-
specifically, only ext3 offers data-mode journaling, (though, not by default), which journals both data and meta-data (but with significant speed penalty)
-
data-mode journaling offers the greatest protection against file system corruption and data loss but can suffer from performance degradation
-
Edit this array whenever new system services are installed, if starting them automatically during boot is desired.
-
If the sixth field is not present or zero, a value of zero is returned and fsck will assume that the filesystem does not need to be checked.
-
By default the kernel ships with snd_pcsp, the alsa pc speaker module. snd_pcsp is usually loaded before your "actual" sound card module. In most cases, it will be more convenient if this module is loaded last, as it will allow alsamixer to correctly control the desired sound card.
