I selected the defaults in partitioning my drive and df -h
shows:<br><br>
<tt>

/dev/mapper/VolGroup00-LogVol00<br>
18G 2.5G 15G 15% /<br>

/dev/shm<br><br>
</tt>Now I am getting ready to install Scalix CE and it is telling me a
whole story about what my partitions should be. Note that I did the
install with 256Mb memory, and I may upgrade to 512Mb.<br><br>
/ (root) partition of 6Gb recommended.<br>
/boot partition of 75Mb (that seems to be met)<br>
/swap partition of x2 installed memory<br>
/var partition of at least 10Gb (well that is based on a 100 users and
100mb and that is enough for me)<br><br>
There is also the note:<br><br>
<font face="Arial, Helvetica">Some versions of Linux include the Logical
Volume Manager (LVM). Scalix Corporation recommends<br>
using a LVM volume for the /var partition. This enables you to increase
the size of the<br>
/var partition and back up the Scalix Server without having to shut down
the system.<br><br>
So what do I do? <br><br>
leave things alone<br>
Use a partition manager (whcih?) to adjust and create partitions<br>
Reinstall and select manual partitioning<br><br>
