Hi,

I've gotten VirtualBox working and installed just the Ubuntu plain
server 20.04 with the goal of creating a LAMP setup that will be used
for a tiny bit of PHP testing.

I allocated 10GB of space for this VM instance.

I want to allocate a limited amount of disk space because I think this
is static and will count as disk usage on the host even when my virtual
machine is not running.

I ran "df -h" and here is the output:

keith@plain-ubuntu20-lamp:~$ df -h

keith@plain-ubuntu20-lamp:~$


I assume the line : "/dev/mapper/ubuntu--vg-ubuntu--lv 8.1G 3.6G
4.0G 48% /" is root.

So a minimal install of the Ubuntu server 20.04lts is 3.6G? Yikes is
this correct? So I have 4G free? I can live with 4G free. Yikes I
have yet to install PHP/MySql/Apache.

Is this correct?

Thank you for your input!!

Keith
