-The PC BIOS generally adds additional constraints for disk
-partitioning. There is a limit to how many <quote>primary</quote> and
-<quote>logical</quote> partitions a drive can contain. Additionally, with pre
-1994&ndash;98 BIOSes, there are limits to where on the drive the BIOS can boot
-from. More information can be found in the
-<ulink url="&url-partition-howto;">Linux Partition HOWTO</ulink> and the
-<ulink url="&url-phoenix-bios-faq-large-disk;">Phoenix BIOS FAQ</ulink>, but
-this section will include a brief overview to help you plan most situations.

-
-<quote>Primary</quote> partitions are the original partitioning scheme for PC
-disks. However, there can only be four of them. To get past this
-limitation, <quote>extended</quote> and <quote>logical</quote> partitions were invented. By
-setting one of your primary partitions as an extended partition, you
-can subdivide all the space allocated to that partition into logical
-partitions. You can create up to 60 logical partitions per extended
-partition; however, you can only have one extended partition per
-drive.
-
-</para><para>
-
-Linux limits the partitions per drive to 15 partitions for SCSI disks
-(3 usable primary partitions, 12 logical partitions), and 63
-partitions on an IDE drive (3 usable primary partitions, 60 logical
-partitions). However the normal &debian; system provides
-only 20 devices for partitions, so you may not install on partitions
-higher than 20 unless you first manually create devices for those
-partitions.

-
-If you have a large IDE disk, and are using neither LBA addressing,
-nor overlay drivers (sometimes provided by hard disk manufacturers),
-then the boot partition (the partition containing your kernel image)
-must be placed within the first 1024 cylinders of your hard drive
-(usually around 524 megabytes, without BIOS translation).
-
-</para><para>
-
-This restriction doesn't apply if you have a BIOS newer than around
-1995&ndash;98 (depending on the manufacturer) that supports the <quote>Enhanced
-Disk Drive Support Specification</quote>. Both Lilo, the Linux loader, and
-Debian's alternative <command>mbr</command> must use the BIOS to read the
-kernel from the disk into RAM. If the BIOS int 0x13 large disk access
-extensions are found to be present, they will be utilized. Otherwise,
-the legacy disk access interface is used as a fall-back, and it cannot
-be used to address any location on the disk higher than the 1023rd
-cylinder. Once Linux is booted, no matter what BIOS your computer
-has, these restrictions no longer apply, since Linux does not use the
-BIOS for disk access.
-
-</para><para>
-
-If you have a large disk, you might have to use cylinder translation
-techniques, which you can set from your BIOS setup program, such as
-LBA (Logical Block Addressing) or CHS translation mode (<quote>Large</quote>).
-More information about issues with large disks can be found in the
-<ulink url="&url-large-disk-howto;">Large Disk HOWTO</ulink>. If you
-are using a cylinder translation scheme, and the BIOS does not support
-the large disk access extensions, then your boot partition has to fit
-within the <emphasis>translated</emphasis> representation of the
-1024th cylinder.
-
-</para><para>
-
-The recommended way of accomplishing this is to create a small (25&ndash;50MB
-should suffice) partition at the beginning of the disk to be used as
-the boot partition, and then create whatever other partitions you wish
-to have, in the remaining area. This boot partition
-<emphasis>must</emphasis> be mounted on <filename>/boot</filename>,
-since that is the directory where the Linux kernel(s) will be stored.
-This configuration will work on any system, regardless of whether LBA
-or large disk CHS translation is used, and regardless of whether your
-BIOS supports the large disk access extensions.

-The automatic partitioning recipes for <command>partman</command>
-allocate an EFI partition as the first partition on the disk.
-You can also set up the partition under the <guimenuitem>Guided
-partitioning</guimenuitem> from the main menu in a manner similar to
-setting up a <emphasis>swap</emphasis> partition.
-
-</para><para>
-
-The <command>partman</command> partitioner will handle most disk
-layouts.
-For those rare cases where it is necessary to manually set up a disk,
-you can use the shell as described above and run the
-<command>parted</command> utility directly using its command line interface.
-Assuming that you want to erase your whole disk and create a GPT table
-and some partitions, then something similar to the following command
-sequence could be used:
-
-<informalexample><screen>
- mklabel gpt
- mkpartfs primary fat 0 50
- mkpartfs primary linux-swap 51 1000
- mkpartfs primary ext2 1001 3000
- set 1 boot on
- print
- quit
-</screen></informalexample>
-
-This creates a new partition table, and three partitions to be used as
-an EFI boot partition, swap space, and a root file system. Finally it
-sets the boot flag on the EFI partition. Partitions are specified in
-Megabytes, with start and end offsets from the beginning of the disk.
-So, for example, above we created a 1999MB ext2 file system starting
-at offset 1001MB from the start of the disk. Note that formatting swap
-space with <command>parted</command> can take a few minutes to
-complete, as it scans the partition for bad blocks.

-ELILO, the ia64 boot loader, requires a partition containing a FAT
-file system with the <userinput>boot</userinput> flag set.
-The partition must be big enough to hold the boot loader and any
-kernels or RAMdisks you may wish to boot. A minimum size would be
-about 20MB, but if you expect to run with multiple kernels, then
-128MB might be a better size.
-
-</para><para>
-
-The EFI Boot Manager and the EFI Shell fully support the GPT table
-so the boot partition does not necessarily have to be the first
-partition or even on the same disk.
-This is convenient if you should forget to allocate the partition and
-only find out after you have formatted the other partitions on your disk(s).
-The <command>partman</command> partitioner checks for an EFI partition
-at the same time it checks for a properly set up <emphasis>root</emphasis>
-partition.

-For new users, personal Debian boxes, home systems, and other
-single-user setups, a single <filename>/</filename> partition (plus
-swap) is probably the easiest, simplest way to go. However, if your
-partition is larger than around 6GB, choose ext3 as your partition
-type. Ext2 partitions need periodic file system integrity checking,

-You might need a separate <filename>/usr/local</filename> partition if

-to make <filename>/var/mail</filename> a separate partition. Often,
-putting <filename>/tmp</filename> on its own partition, for instance
-20 to 50MB, is a good idea. If you are setting up a server with lots

-With respect to the issue of swap partition size, there are many
-views. One rule of thumb which works well is to use as much swap as
-you have system memory. It also shouldn't be smaller than 16MB, in
-most cases. Of course, there are exceptions to these rules. If you

-On 32-bit architectures (i386, m68k, 32-bit SPARC, and PowerPC), the

-At a bare minimum, GNU/Linux needs one partition for itself. You can
-have a single partition containing the entire operating system,
-applications, and your personal files. Most people feel that a
-separate swap partition is also a necessity, although it's not
-strictly true. <quote>Swap</quote> is scratch space for an operating system,
-which allows the system to use disk storage as <quote>virtual
-memory</quote>. By putting swap on a separate partition, Linux can make much
-more efficient use of it. It is possible to force Linux to use a
-regular file as swap, but it is not recommended.
-
-</para><para>
-
-Most people choose to give GNU/Linux more than the minimum number of
-partitions, however. There are two reasons you might want to break up
-the file system into a number of smaller partitions. The first is for
-safety. If something happens to corrupt the file system, generally
-only one partition is affected. Thus, you only have to replace (from
-the backups you've been carefully keeping) a portion of your
-system. At a bare minimum, you should consider creating what is
-commonly called a <quote>root partition</quote>. This contains the most essential
-components of the system. If any other partitions get corrupted, you
-can still boot into GNU/Linux to fix the system. This can save you the
-trouble of having to reinstall the system from scratch.
-
-</para><para>
-
-The second reason is generally more important in a business setting,
-but it really depends on your use of the machine. For example, a mail
-server getting spammed with e-mail can easily fill a partition. If you
-made <filename>/var/mail</filename> a separate partition on the mail
-server, most of the system will remain working even if you get spammed.
-
-</para><para>
-
-The only real drawback to using more partitions is that it is often
-difficult to know in advance what your needs will be. If you make a
-partition too small then you will either have to reinstall the system
-or you will be constantly moving things around to make room in the
-undersized partition. On the other hand, if you make the partition too
-big, you will be wasting space that could be used elsewhere. Disk
-space is cheap nowadays, but why throw your money away?
