33  <para>On a Cobalt RaQ2/Cube2 we use the existing firmware for a boot loader,
34  it requires an <systemitem class="filesystem">ext2</systemitem> revision 0
35  partition to boot from. So here is the recommended partition for a Cobalt
36  RaQ2/Cube2 system:</para>

38  <itemizedlist>
39    <listitem>
40      <para>The first partition should be 50-100 MB.</para>
41    </listitem>
42    <listitem>
43      <para>The second partition should be all the remaining space minus the
44      amount of RAM in the system.</para>
45    </listitem>
46    <listitem>
47      <para>The third partition is going to be your swap partition, which will
48      be the same amount as the RAM installed in the system.</para>
