# Identify Disk Partition to Install From

The `Select Partition` screen (Figure 10-6) applies only if you are installing from a disk partition (that is, if you selected Hard Drive in the `Installation Method` dialog). This dialog allows you to name the disk partition you are installing from.

Figure 10-6. Selecting Partition Dialog for Hard Drive Installation

Enter the device name of the partition containing the `RedHat` directory tree. There is also a field labelled `Directory holding Red Hat`. If the `RedHat` directory is not in the root directory of that partition, enter the path to the `RedHat` directory (for example, if the `RedHat` directory is at `/test/new/RedHat`, you would enter `/test/new`).

After you've identified the disk partition, you'll next see the `Welcome` dialog: Turn now to the section called Welcome.
