Workaround for installing Linux systems with larger than 2TB (UEFI interface) hard drives

A workaround for installing a Linux system larger than 2TB HDD:

1, in the System installation interface

650) this.width=650; "Style=" background-image:none;border-bottom:0px;border-left:0px;padding-left:0px; padding-right:0px;border-top:0px;border-right:0px;padding-top:0px; "title=" clip_image002 "alt=" clip_image002 "src = "Http://s3.51cto.com/wyfs02/M01/74/13/wKiom1YSnmKyprCBAABsnnLK7SY727.jpg" height= "257" border= "0"/>

In this interface press CTRL+ALT+F2 to bring up the command line to modify the hard disk type to GPT can be installed.

Restart the system after you modify it, and then install it. Crtl+alt+f6 call graphical interface, CTRL+ALT+F2 command line can be called at any time,

It is not necessarily called at the time of installation.

After restarting, use the hair fdisk to see the hard disk bit GPT at this time

Can be partitioned according to the system.

Created a partition installation system, this method works on all Linux versions.

2. Installing the operating system on UEFI

UEFI Introduction:

The new UEFI, full name "Unified Extensible Firmware Interface" (Unified extensible Firmware Interface), is a standard that describes the type interface in detail. This interface is used by the operating system to automatically load from a pre-boot operating environment onto an operating system.

The Extensible Firmware Interface (extensible Firmware Interface,efi) is the recommended standard for Intel's architecture, interfaces, and services for PC firmware. Its primary purpose is to provide a set of correctly specified startup services that are consistent across all platforms before the OS is loaded, and are seen as a successor to the BIOS with a history of nearly more than 20 years.

Here is a brief introduction, more information we can http://baike.baidu.com/view/196503.htm to understand

The servers that are commonly used now have UEFI interfaces, and the Linux system also supports EFI, and when the server is powered on EFI, when the Linux system is installed,

Boot partition. There will be a/efi/boot

Because I use the virtual machine, here is just to show you.

In the Linux CD file we also see the EFI driver
