  Finally newfs the filesystem partitions you created in the label.  A typical

  of approximately 128MB to hold the root filesystem, a ``b'' partition for
  swap, a ``d'' partition for /var (usually 128MB), an ``e'' partition
  for /var/tmp (usually 128MB), an ``f'' partition for /usr (usually around 2G),

  Your mileage may vary.
