What type of file should I make the partitions,
ext4
what size should I make them
Whatever you want but I would suggest at least 10 Gb for /
, but more if you intend to use MySQL and want to use /etc for the storage of databases. Depending on how you use the system you can have no swap or 2x the size of your memory.
I myself also create a 25Gb /home
partition and put the remainder on a separate partition so I can store my personal files there and can always format home.
