How to install ubuntu lucid to hard drive Part 2

Step 2. Re-create and reconfigure your file system table, this is quite tricky, I got three partition for on my hard drive for this installation method.

Name                Flags             Part Type        FS Type                    [Label]                 Size (MB)

——————————————————————————————————————————–

sda1                Boot               Primary         Linux ext3                                           5239.51

sda5                                   Logical         Linux ext3                                           4491.01

sda6                                   Logical         Linux swap / Solaris                                  509.97

so just create new file system for the partition to used as a cache directory for Squid Proxy purpose.

# mkfs.ext3 /dev/sda5

# mkdir -p /var/spool/squid (note: you will need this)

# mount /dev/sda5 /var/spool/squid

Now edit your /etc/fstab file

# vi /etc/fstab

You will see the fstab file content is nothing except “UNCONFIGURED FSTAB FOR BASE SYSTEM”,  find your UUID using blkid commmand

# blkid

/dev/sda1: UUID=”09dd88d5-251b-4c88-9643-3c2658fe3b50″ TYPE=”ext3″

/dev/sda5: UUID=”76835f78-cfee-4d52-a664-92bdf3d8a633″ TYPE=”ext3″

/dev/sda6: UUID=”b0f80d32-87d6-46f4-97b9-9aedd93334b6″ TYPE=”swap”

now enter those UUID without “quote” sign.

# vi /etc/fstab

#

proc            /proc           proc    defaults        0       0

UUID=09dd88d5-251b-4c88-9643-3c2658fe3b50      /       ext3    relatime,errors=remount-ro 0       1

UUID=76835f78-cfee-4d52-a664-92bdf3d8a633      /var/spool/squid        ext3  nodev,nosuid 0        2

UUID=b0f80d32-87d6-46f4-97b9-9aedd93334b6      none    swap    sw              0       0

Esc then :wq! press Enter

now type the command below to see the changes

# sudo mount -a

# sudo mount

/dev/sda1 on / type ext3 (rw,relatime,errors=remount-ro)

proc on /proc type proc (rw)

none on /sys type sysfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)

none on /sys/fs/fuse/connections type fusectl (rw)

none on /sys/kernel/debug type debugfs (rw)

none on /sys/kernel/security type securityfs (rw)

udev on /dev type tmpfs (rw,mode=0755)

none on /dev/pts type devpts (rw,noexec,nosuid,gid=5,mode=0620)

none on /dev/shm type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev)

none on /var/run type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,mode=0755)

none on /var/lock type tmpfs (rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev)

none on /lib/init/rw type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,mode=0755)

/dev/sda5 on /var

now edit your /etc/fstab file

After that reboot your system and pray hard

Then we will continue to setup our firewall and proxy server
