    <thetext>The 4.1 Desktop installer, when creating the partitions, suggests the type &quot;Linux&quot; for the first partition it creates and suggests to mount it at /. That&apos;s OK.

But the type suggested for the second created partition is again &quot;Linux&quot;. That&apos;s bad.

Remember what the documentation says -- http://ftp.altlinux.org/pub/distributions/ALTLinux/4.1/Desktop/4.1.0/docs/hd_planning/index.html#ID.._%D0%9D%D0%B5%D0%BE%D0%B1%D1%85%D0%BE%D0%B4%D0%B8%D0%BC%D1%8B%D0%B5_%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%B7%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BB%D1%8B :

Минимальное количество разделов, которые необходимы Linux для работы — два. Первый — для корневой файловой системы, второй — для области подкачки.


So, adhering to this, the second created partition should be suggested to be swap (of type &quot;Linux Swap&quot;, consequently).

This misbehavior leads to the situation that newbies install their ALTLinux systems without swap (if they are doing this on a computer with Windows, where they have to manually shrink the Windows partitions, hence they are working in the manual mode).</thetext>
