Now our language about the Linux Operating System .... before we go any further ... the first automated system we must require its operting .... therefore I share how to install Linuximmediately wrote ...
1. Media for insallasi can be: CD / DVD, HDD and Network (ftp, http, nfs)Partition in Linux, at least consists of two partitions, namely:2.1. Partitions / (root)This partition is used as a system of Linux itself. Partitions can be of type: ext3, ext2, reiserfs, etc.. I suggest using ext3 partition type, because it is journalized FS.2. The swap partitionThis partition is used as virtual memory, if there is insufficient RAM. The recommended minimum size is 2X the size of RAM, but if your RAM above 1 GB, do not be 2X the size of RAM.3. Home partitionHome partition is not necessarily there, but I suggest to make this partition, because the existence of this partition, then your documents will be separated from the / (root). What are the benefits? When you re-installed Linux, or change windows, then your data will not be lost. This is the same as you create 2 partitions on Windows, the partition for Windows and partition for your documents. This home partition can be of type ext3, ext2, reiserfs, etc..3. For those of you who use CD / DVD for installation of Linux, then you can simply boot from the CD / DVD to perform the installation. Because the CD / DVD is bootable Linux in general4. But for you who want to install via network (network), you simply create a boot disk or bootable Flash Disk. Making the boot disk should be done on a computer that has installed Linux.
Here's how:1. To create a boot disk, and network_drivers.img network.img necessary files. To create a bootable Flash Disk, all.img necessary files. Usually the files are located in the install directory / images that are in the CD / DVD Mandriva Mandriva or in the directory that is located on the server.2. Copy the file to a floppy disk or to flash disk, the way is as follows:1. For floppy disks, floppy disk please format first. This is to avoid the errors that occurred on a diskette. How to format a floppy disk, type in Console: mformat a:2. Then, the image that has been made should be copied to a floppy disk or flash disk. For the floppy, copy the image with the command:$ Dd if = network.img of = / dev/fd0$ Dd if = network_drivers.img of = / dev/fd0Network.img to a diskette (boot diskette) and network_drivers.img to disk 2.For flash disk, copy the image with the command:# Dd if = all.img of = / dev/sda1Note the $ and #. $ Sign, it means you are logged in as a normal user, while the # sign means you are logged in as root.5. After the floppy disk / flash disk booting is finished, you just boot the computer using a floppy or flash disk, then just follow the instructions. How to install it please refer to another thread.
