IMHO, a good measure when running in development OSs is to have at  
least two independant installations. One installation for compiling  
and testing new stuff, another one in known good shape for recovery.  
Once the test OS runs a few days to your satisfaction, clone it over  
to the other OS partition.

You can share a private data and a swap partition between both of  
them, ending with at least 4 partitions. 65 GB is plenty of room for  
such stuff.
