From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

27G is OK. But LVM gives you ability to resize the volume at any time if you need. So don't worry about this. Check
df -h
, if you have less than 10G used and you are not going to install a lot of very heavy packages (e. g. games with large resources; I mean only deb-packaged ones, not Steam etc. that go into/home
), it is highly likely that you will never get in trouble because of/
size.
