A 3.0 GB partition allows you to install a minimal installation, while a 5.0 GB root partition lets
you perform a full installation, choosing all package groups.
Warning — do not place /var on network storage
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.11 does not support having a separate /var on a network
filesystem (for example, NFS, iSCSI, or NBD) The /var directory contains critical data that
must be read from or written to during the boot process before establishing network services.
However, you may have /var/spool, /var/www or other subdirectories on a separate
network disk, just not the complete /var filesystem.
12.19.5. Adding Part it ions
To add a new partition, select the New button. A dialog box appears (refer to Figure 12.18, “ Creating
a New Partition” ).
Note
You must dedicate at least one partition for this installation, and optionally more. For more
information, refer to Chapter 26, An Introduction to Disk Partitions.
