Specifying Partition Size

The minimum size for the partition that the system is to be installed can be calculated from the following formula.

1000MB + Paging File Size + Dump File Size

1000MB

= Size necessary to install the system

Paging File Size (Recommended)

= Installed Memory Size ⋅ 1.5

Dump file Size

= Installed Memory Size + 12MB

IMPORTANT:

!The above paging file size is necessary for collecting debug information (memory dump). If you set the initial value of paging file size smaller than the 'recommended' value, you may not be able to collect accurate debug information (memory dump).

!If you want to install Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server on a system with more than 4GB memory installed, we recommend you increase the default paging file size by 2060MB.

!The dump file size for a system with more than 2GB memory installed is '2048MB + 12MB'.

For example, if the installed memory size is 512MB, the minimum required partition size would be as follows:

1000MB + (512MB ⋅ 1.5) + (512MB + 12MB) = 2292MB

NOTES:

To install using Express Setup, calculate the minimum required partition size as follows:

!If not applying a Windows 2000 Service Pack:

The larger of: 'Minimum Partition Size' described above, or '2000MB'.

!If applying a Windows 2000 Service Pack:

The larger of: 'Minimum Partition Size' described above + 850MB, or '4095MB'.
