tags: fedora 14 partitioning clean install
This page is a visual guide to the Fedora 14 install, without presuming  you have existing knowledge of Linux. It also covers how to partition  the drive for a clean install and set up for [[Greyhole]], for those of  you coming from Windows or WHS. Much of the information is based off  the existing [[Partitioning_clean_install | partitioning guide for  Fedora 12]] created by Jayrock. * '''Basic Storage Devices''' [[File:Fedora14-install01.jpg‎|link=|Basic Storage Devices]] * '''Choosing an installation type'''** For a fresh install, Select "Use All Space"** Check "Review and modify partitioning layout" [[File:Fedora14-install02.jpg‎|link=|Use All Space]] * '''Editing the partitions'''* Delete the default Volume Groups** Select "LVM Volume Groups" > "vg_<your hostname>"** Select "Delete"** Confirm "Delete" [[File:Fedora14-install04.jpg‎|link=|Use All Space]] * Delete the "physical volume (LVM)"** Select "Hard Drives" > "sda" > "sda2"** Confirm "Delete" [[File:Fedora14-install05.jpg‎|link=|Delete Physical Volume (LVM)]] * Recreate LVM Physical Volume** Select "Create"** Select "LVM Physical Volume"** Confirm "Create" [[File:Fedora14-install06.jpg‎|link=|Create LVM Physical Volume]] * LVM Physical Volume Partition details** File System Type = "physical volume (LVM)"** Size (MB) = swap size + root "/" + "/home"*** swap size should be 2x your RAM in MB*** 20000 MB is a good size for root "/"*** 10000 MB is a good size for home "/home" but this can be whatever you want [[File:Fedora14-install07.jpg‎|link=|Create LVM Physical Volume]] * Recreate LVM Volume Group** Select "Hard Drives" > "sda" > "sda2"** Select "Create"** Select "LVM Volume Group" [[File:Fedora14-install08.jpg‎|link=|Create LVM Volume Group]] * Make LVM Volume Group > Add Logical Volumes** Select "Add" from the "Make LVM Volume Group" window** Volume 1: Create swap volume from the "Make Logical Volume" window*** File System Type = "swap"*** Logical Volume Name = "lv_swap"*** Size (MB) = 2x your RAM in MB*** Select "OK" [[File:Fedora14-install09.jpg‎|link=|Create Swap Volume]] [[File:Fedora14-install10.jpg‎|link=|Swap Volume Added]] * Add Logical Volume** Select "Add" from the "Make LVM Volume Group" window** Volume 2: Create home volume from the "Make Logical Volume" window*** Mount Point = "/home"*** File System Type = "ext4"*** Logical Volume Name = "lv_home"*** Size (MB) = "10000" or whatever you allocated for this*** Select "OK" [[File:Fedora14-install11.jpg‎|link=|Swap Volume Added]] * Add Logical Volume** Select "Add" from the "Make LVM Volume Group" window** Volume 3: Create root volume from the "Make Logical Volume" window*** Mount Point = "/"*** File System Type = "ext4"*** Logical Volume Name = "lv_root"*** Size (MB) = "20000" or whatever is remaining*** Select "OK" [[File:Fedora14-install12.jpg‎|link=|Swap Volume Added]]
