+<para>In order to build our new Linux system, we will need some space:
+an empty disk partition. If you don't have a free partition, and no room
+on any of your hard disks to make one, then you could build LFS on the
+same partition as the one on which your current distribution is installed.
+This procedure is not recommended for your first LFS install, but if you
+are short on disk space, and you feel brave, take a look at the hint at
+<ulink url="&hints-root;lfs_next_to_existing_systems.txt"/>.</para>
+
+<para>For a minimal system you will need a partition of around 1.2 GB.
+This is enough to store all the source tarballs and compile all the packages.
+But if you intend to use the LFS system as your primary Linux system, you
+will probably want to install additional software, and will need more space
+than this, probably around 2 or 3 GB.</para>
+
+<para>As we almost never have enough RAM in our box, it is a good idea to
+use a small disk partition as swap space -- this space is used by the kernel
+to store seldom-used data to make room in memory for more urgent stuff.
+The swap partition for your LFS system can be the same one as for your host
+system, so you won't have to create another if your host system already uses
+a swap partition.</para>
+
+<para>Start a disk partitioning program such as <userinput>cfdisk</userinput>
+or <userinput>fdisk</userinput> with an argument naming the hard disk upon
+which the new partition must be created -- for example
+<filename>/dev/hda</filename> for the primary IDE disk. Create a Linux native
+partition and a swap partition, if needed. Please refer to the man pages of
+<userinput>cfdisk</userinput> or <userinput>fdisk</userinput> if you don't yet
+know how to use the programs.</para>
+
+<para>Remember the designation of your new partition -- something like
+<filename>hda5</filename>. This book will refer to it as the LFS partition.
+If you (now) also have a swap partition, remember its designation too. These
+names will later be needed for the <filename>/etc/fstab</filename> file.</para>

+(something like <filename>hda5</filename>).</para>
