Installing CentOS 6 on a Clean Disk Drive

Partitioning a Disk for CentOS 6
* '''Use Free Space''' - If the current partitions on the drive do not take up the entire disk space available, any unallocated space may be assigned to the CentOS 6 installation using this option.
* '''Create Custom Layout''' - When selected, this option displays the disk partitioning tool allowing each partition on the disk to be manually configured. Unless you have experience with low level disk partitioning this option is not recommended.
On this screen, make a selection based on your requirements. If, for example, the entire disk is to be used for CentOS 6, select the ''Use All Space'' option. In order to implement a dual boot configuration, refer to [[Installing CentOS 6 with Windows in a Dual Boot Environment]].
For the purposes of this chapter we are assuming the entire disk is available to accommodate the CentOS 6 installation so select the ''Use All Space'' option.
