Most believe in doing that, I prefer using 2 gig of ram and have no swap partition. Actually I
have been doing that since I had 784 Meg of RAM, three 256 meg strips.
(why would you ever want to swap out anything to a hard drive)
Some believe in scattering parts of the file system over many partitions, I belong to the
Slackware camp where one partition for the operating system is all that is needed. I also have a
second (much larger 1.5 T.) bootable drive as storage and as a rescue boot.
(these days in an external case)
