Partitions

   Choose where you would like Red Hat Linux to be
   installed.

   If you do not know how to partition your system,
   please read the section on partitioning in the Red
   Hat Linux Installation Guide.

   If you used automatic partitioning, you can either
   accept the current partition settings, or modify
   the setup.

   If you just finished partitioning with fdisk, you
   must define mount points for your partitions. Use
   the Edit button, once you have chosen a partition,
   to define its mount point.

   If you are using Disk Druid, you will have to
   define mount points for one or more disk
   partitions. You may also need to create and/or
   delete partitions at this time.

Partitioning Your System

   The center row of buttons controls the
   partitioning tool's actions. You can add, edit,
   and delete partitions here. In addition, there are
   buttons you can use to accept the changes you have
   made, or to reset and exit the partitioning tool.

     * New: Use this button to request a new
       partition. When selected, a dialog box will
       appear containing fields that must be filled
       in (such as mount point, filesystem type,
       drive that the partition should exist on,
       size, and so on).
     * Edit: Use this button to change the mount
       point of a currently selected partition. You
       can also manually create a partition by
       editing free space (if available). Editing
       free space in this sense is similar to using
       fdisk in that you can choose where the
       partition begins and ends within that free
       space.
     * Delete: Use this button to delete a partition.
       A dialog box will appear asking you to confirm
       the deletion.
     * Make RAID: Use the Make RAID button ONLY if
       you have experience using RAID. To learn more
       about RAID, please refer to the Red Hat Linux
       Customization Guide. To make a RAID device,
       you must first create software RAID
       partitions. Once you have created two or more
       software RAID partitions, select Make RAID to
       join the software RAID partitions into a RAID
       device.
     * Ok: Use this button to save your paritioning
       selections and continue the installation.
     * Reset: Use this button to cancel any changes
       you may have made.
