What is the best way to partition a FreeBSD 4.9 machine to prepare it for a DirectAdmin install?

I'm planning on shipping it to the datacenter, before I (or you guys -- directadmin owners) load DirectAdmin on it.

Please let me know how I should partition my 120GB HD.

Thanks,

If you only have one hard drive, I'd make 6 or so gb /var and the rest just /

I made my /var 2gb and since email and logs are stored there I should have made it bigger. So either make it a bigger partition or even easy just make the whole hard drive /

Any recommended ports to pre-install before I let the DirectAdmin staff have at it, or do they take care of installing the necessary, essential ports themselves?
