I consider good partitioning part of the "black magic" that a good Unix
admin does.  On a system with only 1 disk, nobody cares, but on systems with
multiple disks, there's a LOT of tuning to be done by splitting things up.
And if you want to learn a bit about it, or even help other people learn
about it, read the Multi-Disk System Tuning HOWTO.  Learn something from it,
contribute to it, both, or neither, it doesn't matter to me, but I've found
it to be a good resource.  You can get it from http://www.LinuxDoc.org/, or
one of it's 200+ mirrors.  Later,
