Partition making in Router OS 5.18

Fri Dec 21, 2012 8:46 am

Dear Members,

Can anyone help me out to making partition in Mikrotik Router OS in x 86 machines?
What, if I have 500 GB SATA Hard disk and I want to make only 50 GB Partition for Router OS and rest of the partition for data or cache etc...

When I press (Y) to continue it erase all the Hard disk and make only one partition. What would be the procedure to make partition while installation or after installation.
