Article Title: GPT Disk: Use of disks larger than 2 TB in Linux. Linux is a technology channel of the IT lab in China. Includes basic categories such as desktop applications, Linux system management, kernel research, embedded systems, and open source.
Although the Fdisk command is interactive and convenient, it cannot be operated on disks larger than 2 TB. What if we want to use disks larger than 2 TB? You can convert a disk to the
Win7 + Ubuntu 14.04.1 64 dual system installationBackground: My notebook before the system is window 7 + Ubuntu 14.04.1, with UEFI boot system. The installation process is first installed Win7, and then installs Ubuntu. It was a very harmonious match, but because when the Win7 was loaded, format the hard disk as GPT (globally Unique Identifier Partition table) partitioned table (with Diskgenius lattice in t

* Partitioning is not a physical function of a hard disk, but a software function.
* Mainstream partition mechanisms are divided into MBR and GPT.
MBR is the most widely used partition mechanism in PC architecture computers.4. MBR
4.1 MBR (Master Boot Record) is a traditional partitioning mechanism, which is applied to the vast majority
At present, most of the hard disks on the computer adopt the MBR partitioning scheme. We have discussed MBR disks in detail. Now let's talk about GPT disks. GPT full name globally unique identifier partition table format (guid Partition Table) is derived from the disk partition
The following is the entire process of booting the installation Windows8 in a UEFI way on a Lenovo Y480 notebook, and the installation Windows7 process is essentially the same. Note that if your computer hard disk is an MBR partition structure, all data on the hard disk will be deleted during the installation, please back up all personal files on the hard disk before installing.prepare a USB flash drive with a capacity of not less than 4G, formatted a
1, the number of partitions, GPT seems to be able to support unlimited partitions, but only 128 on window, and the GPT partition is not divided into primary partition, logical partition, it can be understood that all are primary partitions, it is equivalent to allow you a
Yesterday's work room of the computer poisoning (specific reasons do not know), and then help reinstall the system, sister original is preinstalled Win7 64-bit notebook, motherboard support UEFI boot, and the hard drive is solid-state drive 500G, I started with UltraISO burning image, to the installation of the selection, appeared " Windows cannot be installed in the selection, the selection is GPT Partition
In Linux we can convert a large-capacity disk into a GPT format first. Because the GPT-formatted disk is equivalent to the 4*16 byte of the original MBR disk that originally retained 4 partition table, only the first 16 bytes are left, others are similar to extended partitions, and the true partition table is after 512

How does GPT turn MBR partition? Many laptops now have GPT mode for hard disk partitions, and if you want to install XP, you can only convert GPT disks to MBR disk partitions. Next, simply talk about how to turn the GPT partition

Many users in the new computer, or to the existing computer to reinstall the system has been there is no way to boot USB stick installation situation. The reason for this is that the complex relationships between BIOS, MBR, UEFI, and GPT are still not clear. So, today's small series to share with you about their love and hatred between the feelings of revenge.BIOS and UefiThe BIOS should be lifted. Nobody knows. And UEFI is the BIOS upgrade version, i
Objective: To generate a large number of cases of simulating broken GPT partition structure, and to generate a unique method for the evaluation of the post-repair.Failure: On a full GPT partition disk, the GPT Primary partition ta
Windows 10 + CentOS7 dual system (UEFI + GPT)Preface
I really want to install the Windows 10 + CentOS7 dual system. However, I have learned a lot from the previous installation failure. I checked a lot of information and finally decided to try again after a week. In general, the installation process was quite smooth, but the problem of Windows guidance was complicated for three days.
If the technology is not good, an alternative dual system will be de
MBR (Master Boot Record)1. Master boot record, traditional partitioning mechanism, applied to most PC devices using BIOS2. MBR supports 32-bit and 64-bit systems.3, MBR supports a limited number of partitions.4, MBR only support less than 2T of hard disk, more than 2T of hard disk will only use 2T space (there is a third-party solution).5, MBR is often used for personal PC disk partition.GPT (GUID Partition Table)1, the Globally unique identity
each partition. This MBR code is often referred to as the bootloader. because the MBR partition table has a maximum addressable storage space of only 2Tb (2 + x512 bytes). Therefore, in the case of large hard disks, the MBR partitioning method is gradually replaced by the GUID partition table. UEFI---GPT new UEFI
In the Lenovo computer pre-installed WIN8 system, the disk format is GPT format, if we want to install the earlier WIN7 flagship system or XP system, in addition to changing the BIOS to start the way, but also need to change the disk format, then how to change the GPT format for MBR? There are many kinds of ways, You can use partition tools such as Diskgenius, or
