→Installation instructions for Centos 7
#**Click the link to '''create partitions automatically''' (this will give a typical layout with /, /boot, /boot/efi, /home, etc).
#**Free up space by shrinking the '''/home''' partition. Since your machine will have far fewer users and more virtual machines than a typical installation, we will need that space elsewhere.
#**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 6 10 virtual machines at 8GB eachplus room to compress/extract images). You may wish to keep some extra space left unassigned in case you need some space later, but the majority of the space you will need will be for ''/var/lib/libvirt/images''.
#**Make certain that the existing partitions have the file system type '''ext4''' (not xfs).
#During the installation process you will also have the opportunity to create users.
