==== 2.3 Partition the virtual “drive” ==== * When you reach the Filesystem setup section, select '''“Use an entire disk”''' and then choose the disk you want to install Ubuntu Server on. * Choose the option '''“Set up this disk as an LVM group”'''. * '''Important:''' At this stage, edit the partition sizes as Ubuntu’s installer usually allocates 2 GB for boot which is ridiculous and even worse it only uses half the available space for your LVM & root. The Ubuntu auto partitioner is horrible. * Reduce the boot partition to 512 MB. * Delete the old LVM & root partition. * Create a new LVM taking up the entire disk. * Create a logical volume for the root filesystem, using all available space. * '''Do not encrypt the volume''' (it’s unnecessary since the host drive is already encrypted, and it is not my intention for you to have these VMs running on other people’s servers). <gallery mode="packed-hover" heights=250 widths=400 perrow=2> File:lu55028jxckj_tmp_b4178b46.png File:lu55028jxckj_tmp_3d6c5298.png File:lu55028jxckj_tmp_751040c0.png </gallery> <span id="finalize-installation-do-not-install-docker"></span>
