2<title>Creating a new partition</title>

5Before we can build our new Linux system, we need to have an empty Linux
6partition on which we can build our new system. I recommend a partition size
7of around 750 MB. This gives enough space to store all the tarballs and
8to compile all packages without worrying running out of the necessary
9temporary disk space. If a Linux Native partition is already available,
10this subsection can be skipped.

14The cfdisk program (or another fdisk like program the user prefers) is
15started with the
16appropriate hard disk as the option (like /dev/hda if he wants to create a
17new partition on the primary master IDE disk). He creates a Linux Native
18partition, writes the partition table and exits the cfdisk program.
19The new partition's designation should be remembered. It could be something
20like hda11 (as it is in my case). This newly created partition will be
21referred to as the LFS partition in this book.
