An often discussed topic.
Given you will "do it right" and don't need to preserve the current
partitions I would boot from a Fedora live CD or rescue system and use
fdisk to partition the disk by fdisk /dev/sda
prim partion 1: 24 gb hpfs
prim partion 2: 50 gb ext3 (for boot, you may safely ignore
the warning)
prim partion 3: 500 mb swap
prim partion 4: rest of the disk for LVM
In LVM:
8 - 10 gb lvSYS for the root file system
10 gb lvHOME for /home
you may have about 2 gb unallocated which you can use later by lvm
manager according to your needs.
For root: 8 gb is enough for normal use (office desktop) and if you
don't install "all" software packages. 10 gb is pretty much comfortable
in this case, but you may need it for /home.
