# 8. The Lilo way

Lilo fans can use Disk Druid which is RedHat's default partitioning utility – yes we haven't finished with partitioning just yet. First delete the second partition which will show up in Disk Druid's screen as `/dev/hda2.` Then create a new partiton, set its mount point to `/boot` and size to `16` Mb. Create the second partition and set its mount point to `/`(that's called the root partition) and size to growable. This tells Disk Druid to reclaim all free space after you have finshed partititoning . Create the third partition and set its mount point to swap and size to about `127` Mb presuming you have `64` Mb RAM, those with less can make a `64` Mb swap partition.
