[Discuss] "Stack Script" (shell script) to build Ubuntu LAMP + on Linode



Perhaps slightly off-topic, but I like to use /srv instead of /var for my
websites. I create a directory /srv/www, give it a very small lvm volume,
then create a separate lvm volume for each website under /srv/www.

That way, If one of the websites goes nuts and tries to fill up the disk,
it won't stomp on the other websites or the rest of the server.

There's already more than enough stuff under /var competing for space.
