QUOTE(-Hzu- @ Dec 31 2010, 06:59 PM) Just make one partition, like 60GB(recommended), and the install script will do the rest. so,i just make home right???coz i think i cant get fully permission to open some files n move pic to background files in filesystem....  yes,i know must login as root...but just wanna move some picture to use as login background... |

QUOTE(-Hzu- @ Dec 31 2010, 07:02 PM) I thought the install script will do everything? oh..i see...thx 4 ur info...look like i need to reformat back my ubuntu tonight... Added on December 31, 2010, 7:05 pm No no no, 1 partition, and the script will do the other partition itself based on the partition size, inside of that partition. i also do what gamesky do... / one partition,n the rest is home partition... i not use swap coz i think my 2gb ram already necessary...  |

QUOTE(isolatedSH33P @ Dec 31 2010, 07:19 PM) Eh, you can do that? I thought swap partition is a must. D: I have two partitions for Ubuntu home and root. For Fedora, I use only one partition. But creating a separate partition for home dir is a good idea. Comes handy when something goes wrong with your OS. yes i do...coz ubuntu just take only 13% memory when i watch video,listening music n playing some simple games... so,i think no need... |

QUOTE(-Hzu- @ Dec 31 2010, 07:31 PM) Usually you need to double the number of your RAM, i.e., 2GB RAM = 4GB Swap. If I'm not mistaken though. ok...so when i reinstall,wanna spend 6gb swap,spend some GB for home partition n da rest just let script to do auto...ok...thx all...

QUOTE(Acid_RuleZz @ Dec 31 2010, 07:48 PM) whats the point using 6gb of swap if ur system barely use 1gb at peak? ok,so 2gb already necessary???   Added on December 31, 2010, 7:58 pm QUOTE(isolatedSH33P @ Dec 31 2010, 07:49 PM) You can use 'sudo' since you're in ubuntu. If you prefer GUI, you can use `gksudo <command>`. For example, to move some pictures to root-owned dir, you can use nautilus as root by hitting Alt+F2 to open the run dialog and typing in ok,thx.... CODE gksudo nautilus and insert your password. But running as root, you need to be extra careful  This post has been edited by wanfaris: Dec 31 2010, 07:58 PM |
