 Create custom layout??”Select this if you want to create your own custom partitioning.
Instead of installing to a local hard disk, you can identify an ISCSI initiator as the storage
device by selecting the Advanced Storage Configuration button and entering the IP
address and ISCSI Initiator Name of the SCSI device. Once that is identified, you can use that device
for installing Fedora.
If you have multiple hard disks, you can select which of those disks should be used for
your Fedora installation. If you want to configure an ISCSI device to use for the install,
select Advanced Storage Configuration. Check the Review and Modify Partitioning Layout
check box to see how Linux is choosing to partition your hard disk. Click Next to continue.
10. Review and modify partitioning layout. If you choose to review or customize your partitioning,
you will see a partitioning tool with your current partitioning layout displayed.
You can change any of the partitions you choose, provided you have at least one root (/)
partition that can hold the entire installation and one swap partition. A small /boot partition
(about 100MB) is also recommended.
The swap partition is often set to twice the size of the amount of RAM on your computer
(for example, for 128MB RAM you can use 256MB of swap).
