Installation of Debian Squeeze begins with the recording of an image of the Debian Squeeze installation disc on disk, which can be downloaded from the official website Debian.org on the website Debian.org. page. A CD1 disc is sufficient for installation.
The installation will be carried out on the entire hard drive, with the creation of a new partition table of the hard drive.
The screw will be divided into such sections:
/boot - 250 mbThe boot partition in which the Linux kernel will be located, and from which the operating system will be loaded.
/tmp - 2 gbPartition for temporary files with mandatory mounting parameter noexec. Noexec prohibits the execution of any programs from the section.
swap - 2 gb, partition paging, size is mainly made by 2 times the amount of RAM your server.
/ The rest of the place, the root of the system, that is, everything is mounted in the root.
This breakdown suits me because I really like to use the ispmanager hosting control panel and for it this is a more optimal breakdown, or rather, developers require everything to be put at the root /, but I prefer to do additional 2 sections: /boot, /tmp (without advertising to pay about $ 18 for a perpetual license and use a convenient panel, convenient archiving built into the panel, convenient administration from the web interface is something) You can of course put ispconfig, play with the setup and everything will work no worse and free, but this will not be convenient. You need to draw archiving scripts, do something. It if you configure everything works well, but you want to use a cool and convenient panel for a small price, where everything works out of the box.
For greater reliability and security, 3 more sections can be made. It's /home, /var, /usr - but for the first server, and subsequent ones, you can completely do without them.

We agree to create a new partition table if you have a new hard drive. If you need to install the system on one of the hard drive sections with data, it (partition) can be removed and create the necessary disk markup for installation:
If you need to leave any of the data sections unchanged, or create a section for storing archival copies (which must be stored in another place), you need to choose the desired partition, select the mounting point (for example write to the following article). /data Then the disk section will be on the way. /data) and in no case choose the formatting of the section (unless you create this section from scratch).
