    Is 28 GB enough for Kubuntu 15.10

    Hello everyone,

    I'm running Kubuntu 15.10 from a live USB right now, but intend to do a full install. Is this 28 GiB partition (see picture) enough for the system? I don't see any reasons for more than two partitions, root and swap, since I can easily put all user files in a map in the 64 GiB partition, which hosts Ubuntu Studio 15.10. Windows 10 is my third OS, I'm not ready to cut the ties yet! So I want to "triple-boot" my computer.

    28 GBs is sufficient. If you only want two partitions from it, make the SWAP partition equal to the amount of installed system RAM (unless you have a butt-load of system RAM) and use the remaining for / (root).

      For just the install, 9GB is minimum, 12 is OK, 16 is plenty.
