There's absolutely NO reason a root partition should be that big (in the default install)! Where's the bloat coming from anyway? From debug symbols of *two* kernels (/boot/kernel, and /boot/kernel.old)! Nothing prevents us from moving those debug symbols outside that tree into another partition (e.g. /var). Please keep / minimalistic. Everything else can be worked around nicely; an ever growing root fs (a la Linux?) being the notable exception.
