Disk Partition Knowledge

 The first thing that confuses most people who want to use Linux is how to split the hardness into sections. It is worth mentioning this subject briefly.

1. New Linux users on almost everyone's computer already installed a windows operating system and without deleting it will be ideal for people to do linux installation next to. The reason for this is that the windows are always asked to have a rotation option. Then, for windows that cannot be done in linux, windows should not be deleted again, and for the last reason, windows should always be open for users who need to change linux operating systems continuously.

2. We do not delete windows, but how to partition our hardness. The ideal solution is to choose one of the hard disk partitioning cds first and see your hard drive from usb or cd and make a decision based on your needs. Partition cds which you say if you say a lot of cd, but the rating of the ones with a very high rating of the versions of the latest version can be preferred by downloading. As an example of using both iso files as cd, sample applications are done in videos section.

We started our computer from the partition CD, we opened the partitioning program and how should we partition it? First of all, everyone's hardness and needs are different, knowing that you will decide according to your needs.

Here are our recommendations: You may want to consider shrinking the Windows section do not exaggerate the hardness of the windows for the hard disk space due to the partition table may be distressed. You may not need to create a backup space because you can also use the Windows field as a backup space when working in linux. Depending on the size of your hard drive, you can leave the windows space up to 100gb.

Let us come to the sections you need in linux environment. First, let us know that if you need more than 4 parts in your hardcore you have to create absolute logical sections. The first three sections are the primary part. They can be used to launch an operating system. If you want to create more than three partitions, the fourth partition is created as an extended partition. Logical drives can be formatted and assigned a drive letter, but they cannot be hosted on an operating system. You can install 3 operating systems on primary partitions, to install 2 separate linux distribution next to windows and to make them work as emergency cd by exchanging files with each other. As an example, see section 4. Extended sections starting from the beginning of the swap space and two separate home space, and also can use a spare fat partition as an option.

Now let's go on what are the most used parts in linux and how much should be: In most linux distribution, I recommend that you save your own personal layout during the partitioning phase. First of all, you will set the root files for the distribution of the "/" you will set the area for the section that will be allocated at least 10 gb should be 20 gb as recommended.

The second part is the swap area called "swap". The general rule is that the general rule is as much as the amount of RAM. Any place where you can put my space is possible, but it is possible to create an extended section instead of spending the first 3 primary part of your hard drive.

It would be ideal to have at least 10 gb when creating this part of the user files called "home". If you are frequently installing new linux distributions, you'll want to format the home directory, so don't make this part too large, it's better to use a separate partition for your files. You can create a new partition with ntfs file system to accommodate files larger than 3.24 gb or you can create a new partition in the windows environment.

Let's give examples of partitioning for two operating systems if 3 operating systems have confused you

1.chapter partition windows 30-60-70gb

1.chapter partition Linux / 20GB

1.chapter partitionSwap 2GB

1.chapter partition home 20 gb

or

1.chapter partition section windows 30-60-70 gb

1. chapter partition Linux / 20GB

1.chapter partition home 20 gb

2.chapter partition swap 2GB

2.chapter partition backup (ntfs)

You can install these partitions by yourself by choosing the self-partitioning option for deployments such as ubuntu mint, but you can pre-install the system from a partitioning system. Good luck with.

In the video below, a sample partition table has been created, because the hard disk is small, it is smaller than it should be in the partitions in the partition table.
