Re: What I do for a new machine?

Well, but finally I have installed and it looks like:

Disk /dev/sda: 250.1 GB, 250059350016 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30401 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x0001fe0c

Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 3040 24413184 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 3040 30402 219782145 5 Extended
/dev/sda5 3040 29896 215721984 83 Linux
/dev/sda6 29896 30402 4059136 82 Linux swap / Solaris

which is the output of 'sudo /fdisk -l'

I guess for a beginner (me) this is good. There is one more issue I
have recently fallen into just after the installation. Since this is a
different thing, I making a new thread for it.

Thanks to all.
