Installation guide

• A /boot/ partition (100 MB) — the partition mounted on /boot/ contains the operating sys-
tem kernel (which allows your system to boot Red Hat Enterprise Linux), along with files
used during the bootstrap process. Due to limitations, creating a native ext3 partition to hold
these files is required. For most users, a 100 MB boot partition is sufficient.
14.5. Editing Partitions
To edit a partition, select the Edit button or double-click on the existing partition.
Note
If the partition already exists on your disk, you can only change the partition's
mount point. To make any other changes, you must delete the partition and recre-
ate it.
15. Network Configuration
If you do not have a network device, this screen does not appear during your installation and
you should advance to Section 16, “Time Zone Configuration”.
