-  <title>Creating a File System on the Partition</title>
-
-  <para os="a">Now that a blank partition has been set up, the file system can be
-  created. The most widely-used system in the Linux world is the second
-  extended file system (ext2), but with newer high-capacity hard disks,
-  journaling file systems are becoming increasingly popular. We will create
-  an <systemitem class="filesystem">ext2</systemitem> file system.
-  Build instructions for other file systems can be found at
-  <ulink url="&blfs-root;view/svn/postlfs/filesystems.html"/>.</para>

-  <para os="b">To create an <systemitem class="filesystem">ext2</systemitem> file
-  system on the CLFS partition, run the following:</para>
-
-<screen os="c"><userinput>mke2fs /dev/<replaceable>[xxx]</replaceable></userinput></screen>
-
-  <para os="d">Replace <replaceable>[xxx]</replaceable> with the name of the CLFS
-  partition (<filename class="devicefile">hda5</filename> in our previous
-  example).</para>
-
-  <note os="e">
-    <para>Some host distributions use custom features in their filesystem
-    creation tools (E2fsprogs). This can cause problems when booting into
-    your new CLFS, as those features will not be supported by the LFS-installed
-    E2fsprogs; you will get an error similar to <computeroutput>unsupported
-    filesystem features, upgrade your e2fsprogs</computeroutput>. To check
-    if your host system uses custom enhancements, run the following
-    command:</para>
-
-<screen os="f"><userinput>debugfs -R feature /dev/<replaceable>[xxx]</replaceable></userinput></screen>
-
-    <para>If the output contains features other than: dir_index; filetype;

-  <title>Creating a New Partition</title>
-
-  <para os="a">Like most other operating systems, CLFS is usually installed on
-  a dedicated partition. The recommended approach to building a CLFS
-  system is to use an available empty partition or, if you have enough
-  unpartitioned space, to create one. However, a CLFS system (in fact
-  even multiple CLFS systems) may also be installed on a partition already
-  occupied by another operating system and the different systems will
-  co-exist peacefully. The document <ulink
-  url="&hints-root;lfs_next_to_existing_systems.txt"/> explains how to
-  implement this, whereas this book discusses the method of using a fresh
-  partition for the installation.</para>
-
-  <para os="b">A minimal system requires a partition of around 1.3 gigabytes (GB).
-  This is enough to store all the source tarballs and compile the packages.
-  However, if the CLFS system is intended to be the primary Linux system,
-  additional software will probably be installed which will require
-  additional space (2-3 GB). The CLFS system itself will not take up this
-  much room. A large portion of this requirement is to provide sufficient
-  free temporary storage. Compiling packages can require a lot of disk space
-  which will be reclaimed after the package is installed.</para>
-
-  <para os="c">Because there is not always enough Random Access Memory (RAM)
-  available for compilation processes, it is a good idea to use a small disk
-  partition as swap space. This is used by the kernel to store seldom-used
-  data and leave more memory available for active processes. The swap
-  partition for an CLFS system can be the same as the one used by the host
-  system, in which case it is not necessary to create another one.</para>
-
-  <para os="d">Start a disk partitioning program such as <command>cfdisk</command>
-  or <command>fdisk</command> with a command line option naming the hard
-  disk on which the new partition will be created&mdash;for example
-  <filename class="devicefile">/dev/hda</filename> for the primary
-  Integrated Drive Electronics (IDE) disk. Create a Linux native partition
-  and a swap partition, if needed. Please refer to
-  <filename>cfdisk(8)</filename> or <filename>fdisk(8)</filename> if you
-  do not yet know how to use the programs.</para>
-
-  <para os="e">Remember the designation of the new partition (e.g.,
-  <filename class="devicefile">hda5</filename>). This book will refer to
-  this as the CLFS partition. Also remember the designation of the swap
-  partition. These names will be needed later for the
-  <filename>/etc/fstab</filename> file.</para>
