===Overview===
Unless you have a reason for doing otherwise, we recommend that you create the following partitions for Amahi Fedora based systems:
* swap
* /
===Swap (at least 256 MB)===
Swap partitions support virtual memory: data is written to a swap partition when there is not enough RAM to store the data your system is processing.
|}
===/boot (500 MB)===
The partition mounted on ''/boot'' contains the operating system kernel (which allows your system to boot Fedora), along with files used during the bootstrap process. For most users, a 500 MB boot partition is sufficient.
===/home (at least 1GB)===
To store user data separately from system data, create a dedicated partition within a volume group for the ''/home'' directory. This will enable you to upgrade or reinstall Fedora without erasing user data files.
===/ (ALL remaining space)===
This is where ''/'' (the root directory) is located. In this setup, all files (except those stored in /boot) are on the root partition. It's best that '''ALL''' remaining space be allocated to this partition.
