== Partitioning ==
 +
 +
The goal is to have a small disk file for the MBR and /boot, and a larger raw filesystem in
 +
an LVM Logical Volume. We don't want the LV to be partitioned because this makes it harder to
 +
resize, mount, etc.
 +
 +
Now create a partition table in the smallest disk (256MB) and create a single partition in it.
 +
Format this partition as ext4, labeled "boot" and mounted as /boot.
 +
 +
The installer won't let you format the entire disk as a filesystem, so go ahead and partition
 +
the 10GB disk too, then create a primary partition in it and format it as ext4, mounted as /
 +
and labeled "template-focal" ('''"template-focal-root" would exceed the ext4 limit''').
 +
 +
Preferably, when asked for size, remove the contents and replace it with 'max'
 +
 +
And yes.. just in case you're wondering. We don't use swap partitions.
 +
 +
We'll have to fix the disk later.
