1 -- i am using a virtualBox, does it mean i have to first using some third
party partitioning util like gparted to make a partition. and then try to
install grml-medium
2 -- i am using dynamic HDD in virtual box, do i have to use static, and
also how much space would i require to run grml-medium. will 2GB be enough.
lets say all i need in /home is 300-400 MiB.
