There are lots of folks here who can help with that.

A distro install will need to know a disk layout.  You will need to tell 
us what you want.  Is this a raw disk or is there another distro on it?

To start with, you would probably want three partitions:

distro  20GB
swap    2GB
LFS     10GB

Where you put them depends on your hw layout and any other OS you may be 
using.

For the initial distro, you only need a base partition and swap.  The 
only issue is not to let the distro take the whole disk which most do by 
default.
