24 Chapter 1:Steps to Get You Started
• The size of the swap partition is determined by the amount of RAM in your system and the amount
of space available on your hard drive. If you have 128 MB of RAM, then the swap partition created
can be 128 MB – 256 MB (twice your RAM), depending on how much disk space is available.
For this example, a 1020 MB swap partition (mounted as <swap>) is created.
• A 2738 MB ext partition.
• A partition of at least 2094 MB (mounted as
/home
).
• A 384 MB partition (mounted as
/
).
• A 259 MB partition (mounted as
/var
).
This partitioning scheme offers a reasonably flexible filesystem configuration for most server tasks.

The minimum recommended disk space requirements as listed below, are
just minimum recommendations for the installation itself. You should ad-

needs (such as disk space for personal files, additional applications you may
install at a later time, and so on).
• Custom (minimum, without Advanced Server packages): 350 MB
• Custom (minimum, with Advanced Server packages): 500 MB
• Custom (default): 1 GB

complete control over which packages will be installed on your system.
If you choose automatic partitioning, a Custom installation will create the following partitions:
