This is a visual walk through about manually partitioning your Harddisc, during the setup of Sabayon Linux. |
then select the free space where we want to install our Sabayon and Click on create. |
You will be asked what kind of partition you want. |
The first partition to create is the /boot partition. As file system type, i've chosen ext4. Click again on create. |
Now we're going to create a swap partition, as for the size I've chosen 1500Mb that is a decent space but you can choose more if you have more than 1Gb ram. Then we need to create a root partition as before. |
For the root partition we're going to use all our free space left, and as for the fs type...I've chosen ext4 |
This is our final configuration so far.
|
Now just keep select next to confirm everything, and Let the installer to Format your new Partitions. When done installing, Sabayon asks you to reboot. |
