IMHO you could just use the rest of the disk (after the /boot [hda1]
and swap [hda2]), but if you intend to get a /home (or anything), I
usually use 10GB for / just in case (still at 50%, but you never
know). I got two 40GB disks however, if I were you (and I'm not, so,
you can just disconsider what I'll say), I would put 20GB for the
system, so you'll probably never run out of space...
