How do I change a GPT partition to an MBR partition?"Because the laptop hard disk partition table is GPT and you can't install the boot system. The need to convert to an MBR partition can also be successfully installed. “The problem is, the partition tool cannot
Tags: BSP UI space UUID ROC technology span SaveMSDOS (MBR) and gpt--early Linux systems used MBR to process boot and partition tables, usually placed in the first sector of the disk (512 bytes), but the MBR partition can only crawl 2TB of capacity, and so on, the new partition format
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
the following command (each command followed by a carriage return) to complete the conversion:
Diskpart
List disk
Select Disk n
Clean
Convert xxx
Note: When you run the second command, all hard disks connected to your computer are listed with the/U disk and their number. Replace N in the third command with the hard drive number you want to convert, usually the primary hard disk number is 0.
was later realized that the pit was caused by a GPT partition on the hard drive. So why did I let Ubuntu automatically partition it into a GPT partition? It also blames this HP's working machine is very exotic, it supports the legacy BIOS, also supports EFI, when the original WinXP exists, it uses of course the MBR partition (MSDOS partition), So the installatio

Pre-installed Win8 computer, the disk is GPT format, if you need to install Win7 and other earlier versions of the system, you need to convert to MBR format, use the DiskPart command to complete the conversion.
Operation Steps:
Note: Converting the disk format requires emptying all partitions and data on the disk, and before you do so, save all the important
using the Windows original CD-ROM installation system, Microsoft Rules: Must "Uefi+gpt" or "LEGACY+MBR"! Although the previous said "Uefi+mbr" can still start the system normally, but recommended by Microsoft to install the method, Otherwise it will bring trouble! Microsoft does this limit must not be for nothing! at present, many computers are uefi and legacy co
placed in the memory (chip) BIOS which does not require power supply, it provides the most basic and direct hardware control for the computer, and the original operation of the computer is done according to the content of the curing in the BIOS;4.BIOS is a hardware and software program between the interface or a converter, is responsible for the real-time hardware requirements, and according to the software to the hardware operation requirements of the specific implementation, in the computer s
Operation steps:UEFI is the "Unified Extensible Firmware Interface" that replaces the traditional BIOS. MBR is the traditional partition table type, the biggest disadvantage is not to support the capacity of more than 2T hard disk. GPT makes up the disadvantage of MBR, which supports up to 18EB hard disks and is a UEFI-based disk partitioning scheme.MBR is curren
primary partition location.Logical partitioning: Logical partitions are created based on extended partitions. Linux supports a maximum of 63 IDE partitions and 15 SCSI partitions.Seven, GPT (GUID Partition table, globally unique identity partition table)GPT is a newer partitioning mechanism that solves many of the drawbacks of the MBR.
Today, a co-worker has a problem with three 1T disks (SDB, SDC, SDD) added to several of the hosts he owns, but the new three partitions are added directly to a section using GPT partitioning. Because the previous MBR boot was used, and the LVM partition was mounted separately on several mount points. Colleagues now want to convert the new three partitions to
Since the launch of the Vista operating system in 2007, the major hardware manufacturers for the rapid speed of hardware development, which for the speed and capacity of the hard disk, from the earliest 5400 rpm, 160G capacity, to upgrade to the current 7200 RPM or even the mechanical disk, capacity has also appeared on the TB level. 4Tb capacity appears on a single hard drive.
Because of increasing disk capacity, traditional MBR partition tables (ma

* 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

Basic knowledge of secure boot in MBR, GPT, ESP, MSR, EFI, Uefi, and WIN8:1.MBR partition table: Master boot record, which is the hard drive master boot Record partition table, supports only hard drives with capacity below 2.1TB. Drives exceeding 2.1TB can only manage 2.1TB, up to 4 primary partitions or three primary partitions and one extended partition, with m
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 k

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 the PE system), and checked the MSR partition
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
