I do agree with Pjotr12345,

In this age of large hard disks it is not advisable to have a /root partition size which is just "a bare minimum". Even on my netbook with only 8 GB I use a /root partition of 4 GB, and consider this a minimum. Want to install some extra thingies such as wxmaxima and so. Everyone wants to install some extras. And if just updating already does not succeed for sheer lack of space, then it's bye bye Ubuntu for new users that are trying out Ubuntu.
Pjotrs12345's suggestion of a dynamic partition size is a valid one, especially if that is already done in Debian, as he says. Please consider it ...
