Hi guys, I know that LVM is not exactly the perfect way to have a Linux installation, but is the only one that automatic partition does, I've decided to post a small howto with pictures: first of all select Create Custom Layout when asked. |
then let's choose the free space where we want to install our Sabayon and Click on New. |
The first partition to create is the /boot partition, with ext3, in my case I've chosen a fixed size of 100 Mb, but my notebook is used for developing reasons so I need more space for more kernels, you can easily choose 32 Mb that is more than enough for the common user. |
Now select the free space and press again on new. |
This time 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. |
Time to create a root partition as before select the free space and n click on New. |
We're about to use all our free space left, and as for the fs type...I've chosen ext4 but this is EXPERIMENTAL. |
This is our final configuration as you can see.
|
I hope this is useful for everybody ~
