OK -- I bought a 1 GB mmc card. I have root access. I'm about to boot up from a LiveCD and repartition and reformat the brandnew card.

What size should I make the second partition?

I will be putting a swap file on there. I'd like to be able to put a lot of unnecessary applications on my 770 -- well, you know what I mean: lots of applications that I want to check out but won't use regularly, and apps I want as insurance (so that I can work on some file if I ever have to, for my job and such -- something like the gnumeric spreadsheet app). What size do you think should be big enough, without being too big and squandering space?

Your guidance here would be most appreciated.

Thanks,

Roger
