You need to create three partitions on the system in order to proceed with the installation: 1. boot - this is where the kernel will reside and the system will boot Irom 2. swap - this is the swap partition Ior memory swapping to disk 3. - this is the system root partition where all system applications and libraries will be installed reate boot Partition Proceed by creating a boot partition. Click on the New button. You will be presented with a Iorm with several Iields and checkboes. Enter the partition mount path "/boot" and the select the disk on with to create the partition.

You should make sure that only the Iirst disk is checked and no others. II you are installing on a SCSI-only system, this disk will be designated sda. II you are installing on a system that has both IDE and SCSI disks, please select da iI you intend to use the IDE disk as your boot drive. %he Iollowing is a list oI all entries required to create the boot partition: 1. Mount Point: /boot 2. Filesystem %ype: et3 3. Allowable Drives: select one disk only. %his should be the Iirst IDE (da) or Iirst SCSI disk (sda) . Size(MB): 100 (this is the size in Megabytes, allocate 100MB by entering "100") 5. Additional Size Options: select Fied Size radiobutton Irom the options. . Force to be a primary partition: checked (select this checkbo to Iorce the partition to be created as a primary partition) AIter conIiguration, your settings should resemble the Iollowing illustration:
Once you are satisIied with your entries, click the OK button to create the partition. reate (root) Partition Proceed by creating a 7oot partition. Click on the New button. You will be presented with the same Iorm as previously when creating the boot partition. %he details are identical to what was entered Ior the -oot partition ecept this time the Mount Point: should be and the Size(MB): should be 20MB or at a minimum 102MB.
Once you are satisIied with your entries, click the OK button to proceed. reate Swap Partition Proceed by creating a swap partition. Click on the New button. You will be presented with the same Iorm as previously when creating the boot and root partitions. %he details are identical to what was entered Ior the -oot partition ecept this time the Mount Point: should swap.

Enter your desired settings and click OK to proceed.
Once you have conIigured a network IP address, you may now enter a hostname Ior the system. %he deIault hostname ocaost.ocadomain is not suitable and you will need to enter a proper hostname Ior the system. %his will be used later when you conIigure the system to participate on your network either as an Active Directory / Windows N% PDC client or as an LDAP domain member server. You will also, at this point, need to conIigure gateway IP address and DNS server IP addresses. %o complete this task you will need the Iollowing inIormation: 1. Desired hostname - this is the name you will call the system. Usually this will be a Iully qualiIied hostname e.g homer.the-simpsons.com . 2. Gateway IP address - this is the IP address oI your network gateway to allow routing to the Internet 3. Primary DNS Server - this is the DNS server on your network. Note that iI you intend to use Active Directory or LDAP as your authentication mechanism, you will need to assign a Iunctional DNS IP address so that the authentication mechanism is able to resolve the authentication server hostnames. . Secondary/%ertiary DNS Server - enter a second and third DNS server iI they are available on your network. %he Iollowing illustration shows an eample where a hostname has been assigned, and gateway IP, primary and secondary DNS inIormation has also been entered.
Once you are satisIied with your entries, please proceed by clicking the Net button.
