How to partition a big disk (Build a RADIUS/DNS/DHCP server under Solaris 9)

Hello,

Attached is the original question. Thanks Luc Suryo
and Rich Teer who suggest to use three partitions:
root, swap, and /export.

After DNS/DHCP/RADIUS have been set, more disk(s) will
be added to the system to make disk RAID.

So, which type of filesystem layout is better? Should
I make independent filesystems for /usr, /opt, /var,
/home?

Thanks a lot.
