Most of the time the boot partition and the system partition are the same partition on the drive C.
By default C: is the active partition of the hard disk drive
Problems with windows telling you there is no hard drive found? When starting computer, press esc or f10 to enter setup. Find your hard drive settings and disable the logical dos partition. I did that and it installed XP just fine, after fighting with it for months. Hope this helps
It depends on how you format it, what size the drive is and how you partition it. Some are 512, some 1024, some 4096.
One of your drives has an error (known or unknown)
in Linux this is the second logical drive inthe extended partition on the primary slave hard drive
primary
Another common name for a logical drive is a partition.
A map to the partitions on the hard drive. This table tells BIOS how many partitions the drive has and how each partitions is divided into one or more logical drives, which partition contains the drive to be used for booting (called the active partition), and where each logical drive begins and ends.1-map to the partitions on on the hard drive2-information about where each logical drive is located, where it starts and where it ends3-which partition contains the drive to be used for booting (the active partition)The first is a map to the partitions on the harddrive,and how they are divided, the second, which partition contains the drive to be used for booting this is called the "Active Partition", and third where each logical begin and ends.
That depends on what primary partition the fourth extended partition has been placed on. If it was on the first primary partition, it would be /dev/sdb5 (or /dev/hdb5). If it was on the second primary partition, it would be /dev/sdb6 (or /dev/hdb6). If the third, /dev/sdb7, etc... Of course that's assuming you have placed all your logical partitions in a single primary partition. There are several other arrangements you could theoretically have made.
You have to create the primary partition, which will create a drive with assigned letter for you. Or you can create the extended partition where you can create logical drives it can be more than 1.
primary, extended, logical - 3 types
Primary partition:you can install additional Operating system (eg:- windows 8, linux etc.)Logical Partition:Just additional drive which can be used to store additional data/ normal files/ software.
4 ----- Dhyan Tripathi You can have 4 primary partitions, or 3 primary partitions and one extended partition containing any number of logical partitions. While you can assign a drive letter to a partition, you can also map it as
Logical Drives
Create one primary partition and an extended partition with four logical drives within it.
Create one primary partition and an extended partition with four logical drives within it.
