This table shows how I partitioned my 80GB internal disk. I decided to
have an 8GB partition which I would format as FAT32. This allows me to
easily and reliably share files between OS X and Linux, both of which
have good FAT32 support but, at the time of writing, poor or incomplete
support for each other's native filesystems.
Partition Type Size Purpose
Partition 1 Free Space 16 MB Debian Bootstrap
Partition 2 Free Space 2 GB Debian swap space
Partition 3 Free Space 44.5 GB Debian root filesystem
Partition 4 Free Space 8 GB Shared FAT32 filesystem
Partition 5 Mac OS Extended (Journalled) 20 GB Mac OS X filesystem
.....
When you're done, select "Finish partitioning and write changes to
disk". For me, the installer complained that the FAT32 partition "had
errors". I think this means that it couldn't format it, presumably
because it's missing mkfs.vfat. Don't panic, just continue with the
installation -- it's a simple problem to fix later.
