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 about 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 the gentle reader
17wants to create a
18new partition on the primary master IDE disk). It is used to create a Linux
19Native partition, write the partition table and exit the cfdisk program.
20The new partition's designation should be remembered. It could be something
21like hda11 (as it is in my case). This newly created partition will be
22referred to as the LFS partition in this book.
