5 | Before we can build our new Linux system, we need to have an empty Linux
|
---|
6 | partition on which we can build our new system. I recommend a partition size
|
---|
7 | of at least 750 MB. This gives enough space to store all the tarballs and
|
---|
8 | to compile all packages without worrying about running out of the necessary
|
---|
9 | temporary disk space. But you probably want more space than that if you
|
---|
10 | plan to use the LFS system as your primary Linux system. If that's the
|
---|
11 | case you'd want more space so you can install additional software. If a
|
---|
12 | Linux Native partition is already available, this subsection can be skipped.

|

16 | The cfdisk program (or another fdisk like program you prefer)) is
|
---|
17 | started with the appropriate hard disk as the option (like /dev/hda if a
|
---|
18 | new partition is to be created on the primary master IDE disk). It is used
|
---|
19 | to create a Linux Native partition, write the partition table and exit the
|
---|
20 | cfdisk program. Please refer to the documentation that comes with your
|
---|
21 | fdisk program of choice (the man pages are often a good place to start)
|
---|
22 | and read the procedures about how to create a new Linux native
|
---|
23 | partition and how to write the partition table.

27 | The new partition's designation should be remembered. It
|
---|
28 | could be something like hda11. This newly created partition will be
|
---|
29 | referred to as the LFS partition in this book.
