Partitioning Your System
1) If you chose automatic partitioning and did not select Review, skip ahead to the “Network
Configuration” section.
2) If you chose automatic partitioning and selected Review, you can either accept the current partition
settings (click Next), or modify the setup using Disk Druid, the manual partitioning tool.
3) If you chose to partition manually, you must tell the installation program where to install Red Hat
Enterprise Linux. This is done by defining mount points for one or more disk partitions in which Red
Hat Enterprise Linux is installed. You may also need to create and/or delete partitions at this time.
The partitioning tool used by the installation program is Disk Druid. With the exception of certain
esoteric situations, Disk Druid can handle the partitioning requirements for a typical installation.
