Linux Partitioning knowledge

Primary partition, extended partition, logical partition

1, a hard disk can have up to 4 primary partitions (primary), where one primary partition can be replaced by an extended partition (extend), only one extended partition, within the extended partition can be divided into multiple logical partitions (L).

2. If you plan for more than four partitions: the partition combination is 3primary+1extend or 2p+1e or 1p+1e.

3, a disk can only be an extended partition, the extended partition can not be used directly, you must divide the logical partition on the extended partition, and then format (create file system), before you can save data or install the system.
