|
|
||||||
sudo swapoff -a; sudo swapon /dev/zram0

-----------------
|
|
||||||
To choose to shrink your current partition to install Lubuntu alongside a currently existing install so you can boot into both of them select :guilabel:`Install alongside`. The :guilabel:`Current` bar graph shows how much space is currently taken up by a partition. The :guilabel:`After` section shows how much space will be used by both installs. To change how much space each partition will end up using slide the center back and forth to distribute space between both installs. If you want to encrypt your install check the :guilabel:`Encrypt system` checkbox.

Manual Partitioning
|
|
||||||
-----------------------
|
-----------------------
|
||||||
.. Warning::
|
If you have had a previous linux install and want to put the entire disk or just replace an entire partition you will need to unmount them. In this case running
|
||||||
Trying to use nonlinux filesystems such as NTFS or FAT as your root filesystem will result in a broken system.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you wish to manual set up partitions, as an advanced option you will have to choose which file-system you want. A file-system controls how your files are accessed at lower levels on the disk. If you are booting your computer in UEFI mode a more modern firmware compared to BIOS you will need to create an EFI system partition (see `efi system partition Wikipedia <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EFI_System_partition>`_ for more detail). To create this partition you will need a FAT32 file-system with the ESP flag to be mounted at /boot/efi/ under the mount point. You will also need a root (/) file-system, several file-systems included for Lubuntu are Ext4, XFS, and Btrfs. Lubuntu 22.04 has bug with installing BTRFS and `This guide on Lubuntu discourse <https://discourse.lubuntu.me/t/getting-lubuntu-22-04-to-install-with-btrfs/3273/>`_

|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
.. Warning::
|
|
||||||
Creating a new partition table will erase all data on the drive and deleting a partition will delete all data on the partition.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you have a new hard disk or solid state drive press the :guilabel:`New Partition table` button but this will delete the whole disc if you have any data on it. After pressing this button you will get a dialog saying what kind of partition table to use. The :guilabel:`Master Boot Record` button will create an old partition table but will only allow 4 primary partitions and partitions up to 2 Terabytes. The :guilabel:`GUID Partition Table` button works for large discs but may not be recognized by legacy operating systems. To get back to your main partitioning window press the :guilabel:`OK` button.
|
.. code::
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To change what disk you are partitioning use the :guilabel:`Storage device` drop down menu.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can create partition by clicking the :guilabel:`Create` button which will bring up a dialog. The file system field is a drop down menu, select which file-system you want. You also need to select where you want to mount the partition in the :guilabel:`Mount Point` drop down menu. To change how big to make the partition change the :guilabel:`Size` field. To change the size or type of a partition after initially creating it press the :guilabel:`Edit` button. To delete a partition press the :guilabel:`Delete` button. You will need at least one root (/) partition and if you are booting an EFI system you will also need a /boot/efi mounted partition. Another common option is to have all your data on its own partition, which can even be on its own separate physical disk this can be mounted at /home. If you want to encrypt your your filesystem check the :guilabel:`Encrypt` checkbox. Then two fields will appear to get write type your encryption passphrase twice to confirm it. To add a label for this partition enter it into the :guilabel:`FS Label` field.

|
||||||

|
||||||

|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Lubuntu's bootloader grub does not support creating an encrypted / partition without a separate unencrypted /boot partition. If you create a separate /home partition will be where you save all your user documents photos and videos so make sure if you create one it has enough space for your personal files. All partitions created do not be on the same drive so you can for example put /home on its own drive to give you lots of space and then put / where all of your system and programs will be launched from. A good example of a sensible way to use manual partitioning is if you have a solid state disk and a hard drive in a computer, put the / partition on the solid state drive for faster program launches and /home on the hard drive for more space for your files.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
To go back on all your changes to the previous state press the :guilabel:`Revert All Changes` button in the top right. To change what device your computer will boot off of you will need to use the :guilabel:`Install boot loader on` drop down menu to select which disc to boot off of.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
In the center of the manual partitioning window shows you what name of the partition is. What type of filesystem is displayed in the :guilabel:`File System` column. To see where your partition is mounted are shown in the :guilabel:`Mount Point` column. The size of the system is shown in the :guilabel:`Size` Column.
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The top of the manual partitioning window shows a visual bar showing size of your partitions on top. Below it shows each partition on your drive with the color it is in the bar graph and the size of the partition.
