Install Hongqi Linux, is it okay to set up the partition like this?

1. After the adjustment of Partitionmagic, it is: 5G for C drive, 25G for D drive, and 10G for unallocated

The last "unallocated 10g", does it not need to be set to an E disk and not formatted?

There is no concept of drive letter in Linux, you can just create a new partition without formatting.

2. There are 3 partitions in the installation: ""swap"""d".

I only divide the 2 partitions of " " and "swap", and put the data or some files that need to be stored in the " " partition line?

Partitions are Linux-proprietary formats and cannot be read by Windows. You can use your 25G partition as a data storage partition so that both Linux and Windows can read and write. Preferably FAT32, NTFS, don't forget to use NTFS-3G to read and write NTFS partitions.

3. There is not much hard disk space, if only 5G is left for the "" partition is enough to install the Linux system?

5g ……It doesn't seem like enough ......My ubuntu is more than 3G to 4G after installation. There's still a little bit of room to do nothing. My recommendation is a minimum of 8g.

Also note that if the machine is too old, it may not be able to boot a system that is too much of the capacity behind the hard drive. The 386 era is 2g and cannot be started, the 486 era is 8g, and then it is 16g 32g 60g 73g 120g 137g ......I don't have to ask for it).

You'd better be like this:

8G (Windows) 10G (Linux without swap) 22G (extended partition, one data partition inside, with fat32, one swap 512M).

Windows XP gives 5G a bit of a small ......Give 8g ......

1. No formatting.

2 Yes. It's perfectly enough to give it to Linux.

PS: I suggest you install Ubuntu Linux.

It's not feasible for you to partition like this, because swap still needs to be partitioned, and you can divide it like this.

6G for C (XP is recommended to be above 5G); D plate is divided into 24g; E disk is divided into 6G, F disk 500M, H disk 3G, and then E, F, H are hidden partitions in PM, so that these partitions cannot be accessed under Windows, or you can not use this, but under PM, E should be formatted as Ext3, F disk is Swap, H disk can format other types, if you want to interact with Windows, you can divide H into FAT or FAT32, you can.

5gswap 1g

The rest is given to the C drive, and it is agreed that the upstairs.

It is recommended to use partition magician or PQ

1. The type of software installation package.

There are three typical configurations for installing the Linux installation package by default (full installation is recommended for beginners.)

2. Configure the Hongqi Linux partition and configure the network (if you don't have it, you can continue to configure it after installation).

3. After performing the next step, enter the operating system to format the file system. Load the disc file to install the system process.

4. The installation process needs to wait for more than ten minutes.

Login type selection.

1. After installation, the color depth and resolution are selected according to the parameters supported by the actual display, and the login interface type is selected (server recommended text login) to learn to use the recommended selection of graphic login methods.

2. At this point, even if the configuration is over, after the installation is completed, reboot the operating system.

3. Load the operating system driver, partition information, restart the operating system, and then boot it for the first time to install the graphics and system software.

4. Hongqi Linux boot interface. Pay attention to the startup time, if there is an abnormal startup service, if the network card is started, it is usually because there is a problem with the network parameter configuration (such as IP conflict or the network card is not activated).
