<li>Select the hard disk and indicate "I will configure partitions" and click done.
<li>Click the link to '''create partitions automatically''' (this will give a typical layout with /, /boot, /boot/efi, /home, etc).
<li>Free up at least '''100GB''' of disk space by shrinking the '''/home''' partition (At least '''40''' GB for root (/) and '''40GB''' GB for /home). Since your machine will have far fewer users and more virtual machines than a typical installation, we will need that space elsewhere.
<li>Create a new logical volume for '''/var/lib/libvirt/images''' and give it the space made available by shrinking /home (You will need enough space for up to 10 virtual machines at 8GB each plus room to compress/extract images).
<li>Make certain that the existing partitions have the file system type '''ext4''' (not xfs).
