Hi folks,
CPU - AMD Athlon64 X2 3800
RAM - 2G 6400 dual channel
HD - 160G
Ubuntu 7.04 server amd64 (LAMP)
virtualbox
I'm building a Virtual Machine with Ubuntu as host OS. I shall run Slackware-i386 and OpenBSD4.1-amd64 as guess OS
Following Guide Partition finally it came to;
LVM VG Ubuntu LV root - 153.5 Linux device-mapper
#1 153.5 GB f ext3 /
LVM VG Ubuntu LV swap_1 6.3G Linux device-mapper
#1 6.3GB f swap swap
SCSI2 (0,0,0) (sda) - 160.0GB ATA maxtor 6V160E0
#1 Primary 255.0 MB B F ext3 /boot
#5 Logical 159.8 GB k lvm
Please help me to understand:-
1) What is #1? Is it partition-1?
2) What is #5? Is it partition-5? Then where are partition-2/3/4?
3) Why it needs 6.3GB as swap. RAM size is only 2G.
In order to reserve space on the HD for the guest OSs, I deleted;
#1 153.5 GB f ext3 /
and recreated it
#1 40GB f ext3 /
leaving 113.5GB space unusable. Can I use this space for installing the guest OS, Slackware-i386 and OpenBSD4.1-amd64?
Now Ubuntu 7.04 server (LAMP) is running but without X and DNS installed.
I'm prepared to install virtualbox as virtualizer but can't find it with;
$ sudo apt-cache show/showpkg vituralbox
Nor vmware-server. I found qemu and bochs. Which repo I have to enable?
# fdisk -l
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 31 248976 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 32 19457 156039345 5 Extended
/dev/sda5 32 19457 156039313+ 8e Linux LVM
Please advise. TIA
B.R.
