How to Create a partition for a Linux Hard Drive System

Linux hard drive system partitioning steps Linux hard drive system, hard drive and other device naming rules Linux hard drive system seems like "alternative", it name Hard Drive equipment, it is also very different from Windows. In the Linux hard drive system, your hard drive device information is stored in the "dev" mount point. I didn't mention this mount point above. You know it. We will see you later. Its hard disk naming method is: 1. hard Disk of the IDE interface, which is called (or displayed as) in Linux: HD 2. SATA hard disk or SCSI hard disk, called SD 3. the optical drive is CDROM. If multiple optical drives are available, they are listed in numbers, such as CDROM0, CDROM1, and CDROM2. partitions In Windows on the hard disk take Ubuntu 8.04 or above as an example. It supports read and write operations of Windows partition types (FAT32, FAT, NTFS) Very well. After your system is installed, it can automatically identify these Windows partitions. They are marked with "Capacity of the partition + volume label of the partition", such as: 22.5g game, 30G System ^. In the "location" of your system, you can see it. 5. If you have multiple hard disks .................. As mentioned earlier, in Linux, hard disks are divided into HD and SD, which are in the order of 26 English letters. The first hard disk is hda, so the first mount point of this hard disk is hda1, and so on hda2, hda3 ^ said just now, multiple hard disks, hdb is the second hard disk in the order of 26 letters. This should be easy to understand, right? Its "partition" is, naturally, hdb1, hdb2, hdb3 ........................ In the same way, you should know what sdb3 means? The capacity settings of Common mount points vary with the size of each hard disk. Naturally, there is no final conclusion. I will give you a general idea that you can consider 1 according to your actual situation. boot Linux hard drive system, its boot file is very small, this boot mount point, everyone points 100 M, It is enough (this is basically a final conclusion! No matter how big your hard disk is, that's enough! After you have installed the system, let's see if it actually takes 45 MB ?? 50 M) Tips: BOOT mount points are not required. However, I personally suggest that if you want to create a dual-system, you 'd better separate it. When you install the grub boot, install it on the boot, that is, the dual-system, the purpose is to be clearer and more convenient. 2. /(for some Linux distributions, this is also written as:/root, and the function is the same.) As I said just now, it must be at least 5 GB. home has just said that it is the largest and largest requirement ...... Try your best. Hey! Common online hard drives of 80 are distributed to 70 GB .................. 4. SWAP has an unwritten small rule: computer memory, less than 1g, SWAP points 512 M; memory greater than 1g, just 1g. 5. TMP temporarily stores some junk data. Let's watch it. It's a big deal. TIPS: Linux and windows are not the same. There are very few spam. It can be said that there is almost no spam. Therefore, in a Linux hard drive system, you don't have to worry about the spam file problem! Therefore, Linux does not need to make a noise every day: How can I clean up garbage! 6. usr accounts for about 15% of your total capacity. You can choose not to "Attach. Linux partition is a headache because it does not assign a "letter drive" to each partition. Instead, it uses a specific folder name to mount the partition ", differentiate functions. In fact, you can understand the meaning of these mount points in the subconscious. Do not think about Windows. A drive letter is required for partitioning ....... To use Linux, many concepts must be changed ~ The basic knowledge of Hard Disk Partitioning in Ubuntu 8.04.1 has been completed, and it is time to get started. Take Ubuntu as an example to describe the partitioning process step by step. The hard disk "partition" is the installation process of the Ubuntu system: Step 3. The first two steps are unnecessary. 1. System language selection ?? Are you sure you want to select Chinese (simplified? By default, press Enter! 2. Select the time zone ?? The default value is (SHANGHAI), which can be understood in pinyin. Shanghai, China. Press enter. 3. The hard disk partition page appears first. We select "Manual". (1) Here, it is the "partition" software interface of the Ubuntu system. Each Linux hard drive system comes with its own partitioning software. Their interfaces and usage are roughly the same. cainiao can simply cope with all of them by learning one. Although there are many third-party software dedicated to the Linux Hard Drive System "Partitioning" on the Internet, I personally recommend that you use the built-in system, which is convenient and quick. (2) Select the "free space" line below and click "new partition. (3) Click "new partition" to create a mount point. ◆ The new partition type boot and swap (swap partition) are the Master, and other mount points are all logic. This is not explained. Of course it is not final ◆ new partition capacity: Enter it by yourself ◆ new partition location: by default, select "start" ◆ "partition" for Linux hard drive system, there are also many types, for example, Windows includes NTFS and FAT32. In this era, we recommend that you select the Ext3 log file system. There is also a kind of R... FS, the specific name is forgotten, you can also. However, I use Ext3 to store the division of files. In fact, in addition to ext3, GNU/Linux can use ext2, xfs, reiser, jfs, and other file systems to store files. Each file system has its length, but Beginners first use ext3. To create a SWAP mount point in a moment, select it here! Don't forget! ◆ The mount point is not explained. As mentioned earlier, the "partition" software lists the common: boot,/, home, usr, temp, the following mount points are provided here. You can select them directly: (4) Step 1: create a "partition" for the BOOT mount point; Step 2: Create a SWAP, the swap space volume is set up/, and the root directory mount point volume is set up HOME. The user mount point volume is set up here. The most basic setting is forgot. In the tutorial, I will set up these items, others. If you want to build it, you can just draw pictures and tigers. Should you have all this skills? 4. Enter your personal information: User Name, password (enter twice), and computer name 5. Start "automatic" installation ......... 6. restart the system! I think writing is simple enough, and it should be enough for cainiao. Please refer to the post for details. What can be solved? Try to help you solve the problem. As for the operation after the system is installed, it is not a sentence, or even thousands of words can be clearly said ........... If you really want to learn, you can go to the bookstore to buy books ..... Or students, go directly to the "sit in the library. At that time, I borrowed three books from the library and came back to study for a few months. The "partition" of other Linux hard drive system releases has just been said. Through this article, we should at least be able to understand the "mount point" knowledge of the Linux hard drive system, linux hard drive system naming method for hardware (hard drive, optical drive), Common mount point usage, general capacity division. This knowledge is completely universal for any Linux hard drive distribution system. It means that no matter what release version you use, redhat, Hongqi, Yulin, fedora, opensuse and so on. All their "partitions" follow: create ?? Select the format (such as ext3 )?? Set a mount point ?? Fill in the capacity, which is carried out in this step. The difference is that, hey, their own installer, at the partitioning step, the interface graphics (background color pull, button placement pull) are slightly different.
