Step 4: Creating the "/" folderAfterwards we end in the main partitioning menu again. Select the free space: Make a new partition: I select here 5 GB as root. This is because of the virtual disk. Normally you should use at least 10 Gb.... better 20 Gb to have enough space to install all the apps you want.
