Partitioning between SDD and HDD

[Javier Perez]

Hi
I am looking forward to rebuild my system.
I want to buy a SSD to place all fixed, operating system files in there and
use the HDD for my Data and variable operating system files.

looks like /home and /var should go on the HDD.
Can I have a small ramdisk to place /var/run or would it cause instability
issues if I try to hibernate/sleep the system?

This would be a desktop system, right now I am tripple booting
Ubuntu/Win2k/Fedora on it.

Another question, is it possible to combine the /boot partition of Fedora
with the one of Ubuntu 12.04? I think both are using grub2 nowadays, or
would it be asking for endless trouble?

What partition scheme would you recommend? How big an SSD would I need?

I look forward to a system that boots faster and works faster when starting
up programs and such, and I want to minimize wear and tear on the SSD (I
understand they have a limit on rewrites)
