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>
37
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>
