99 | | You should be able to return to the graphical installer to do the rest. |
100 | | |
101 | | === Using the Installer === |
102 | | |
103 | | Choose manual partition in the Debian Installer. Then: |
104 | | |
105 | | * Choose "Congifure software RAID" (skip step if one disk system) |
106 | | * Choose "Create MD Device" |
107 | | * Choose RAID1 for boot partition and RAID10 for big partition |
108 | | * Number of active devices: 4 |
109 | | * Number of spare devices: 0 |
110 | | * Now select the second partition on each device. |
111 | | * Click Continue. Repeat for third partition on each device but select RAID10 instead of RAID1. |
112 | | * When you are done, click Finish. Now you are back at the partition menu. |
113 | | * Scroll down to the raid devices (or apply straight to your partitions if it's a one disk system). Modify the 512 MB RAID device: Filesystem: ext3, mount on /boot |
114 | | * Encrypt the larger, remaining device. Save passphrase in [wiki:keyringer]. |
115 | | * Choose "Congifure LVM" (selecting the device encrypted in the previous step) |
116 | | * Create a volume group called `vg_`''nameofserver''`0` |
117 | | * Create logical volumes in this volume group based on your needs. Suggestions: 3GB for /, 1GB swap. |
118 | | |
119 | | * After returning to the main disk config menu, click on each logical volume that you create and specify how it should be formatted and mounted. |
120 | | * Enter root password. Save in [wiki:keyringer]. |
121 | | * Do not install the server package or the base package - deselect all of them. |
122 | | |
123 | | ==== Views of Disk Configuration ==== |
124 | | |
125 | | * all partitions set to use '''physical volume for RAID''' |
