1.磁盘的分区主要分为基本分区（primary partion）和扩充分区(extension partion)两种，基本分区和扩充分区的数目之和不能大于四个。且基本分区可以马上被使用但不能再分区。扩充分区必须再进行分区后才能使用，也就是说它必须还要进行二次分区。那么由扩充分区再分下去的是什么呢？它就是逻辑分区（logical partion），况且逻辑分区没有数量上限制。
在 Linux 中，每一个硬件设备都映射到一个系统的文件，对于硬盘、光驱等 IDE 或 SCSI 设备也不例外。Linux把各种 IDE 设备分配了一个由 hd 前缀组成的文件；而对于各种 SCSI 设备，则分配了一个由 sd 前缀组成的文件。
对于ide硬盘，驱动器标识符为“hdx~”,其中“hd”表明分区所在设备的类型，这里是指ide硬盘了。“x”为盘号（a为基本盘，b为基本从属盘，c为辅助主盘，d为辅助从属盘）,“~”代表分区，前四个分区用数字1到4表示，它们是主分区或扩展分区，从5开始就是逻辑分区。例，hda3表示为第一个ide硬盘上的第三个主分区或扩展分区,hdb2表示为第二个ide硬盘上的第二个主分区或扩展分区。对于scsi硬盘则标识为“sdx~”，scsi硬盘是用“sd”来表示分区所在设备的类型的，其余则和ide硬盘的表示方法一样，不在多说。
在 Linux 中规定，每一个硬盘设备最多能有 4个主分区（其中包含扩展分区）构成，任何一个扩展分区都要占用一个主分区号码，也就是在一个硬盘中，主分区和扩展分区一共最多是 4 个。
Linux 规定了主分区（或者扩展分区）占用 1 至 16 号码中的前 4 个号码。以第一个 IDE 硬盘为例说明，主分区（或者扩展分区）占用了 hda1、hda2、hda3、hda4，而逻辑分区占用了 hda5 到 hda16 等 12 个号码。
因此，Linux 下面每一个硬盘总共最多有 16 个分区。
IDE硬盘最多有64个分区
1.fdisk查看系统分区
[root@test4 ~]# fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 21.4 GB, 21474836480 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 2610 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 13 104391 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 14 2610 20860402+ 8e Linux LVM
注释：这个硬盘的大小是21.4GB，有255个磁面，63个扇区，2610磁柱(cylinders)
每个cylinder（磁柱）的容量是 8225280 bytes=8225.280 K（约为）=8.225280M（约为）；
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 13 104391 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 14 1305 10377990 8e Linux LVM
id和System 表示的是一个意思，id看起来不太直观，我们要在fdisk 一个分区时，通过指定id来确认分区类型；比如 7表示的就NTFS 分区；这个在fdisk 中要通过t功能来指定。83是linux。下面的部分会提到；
说明：硬盘分区的表示：在Linux 是通过hd*x 或 sd*x 表示的：
其中* 表示的是a、b、c ... ...
另外x 表示的数字 1、2、3 ... ...
hd大多是IDE硬盘；sd大多是SCSI或移动存储；引导（Boot）：表示引导分区，在上面的例子中sda1 是引导分区；
Start （开始）：表示的一个分区从Xcylinder（磁柱）开始；
End （结束）：表示一个分区到 Ycylinder（磁柱）结束；
2.fdisk 对硬盘进行分区
[root@test4 ~]# fdisk /dev/sda //对sda磁盘进行分区
Device contains neither a valid DOS partition table, nor Sun, SGI or OSF disklabel
Building a new DOS disklabel. Changes will remain in memory only,
until you decide to write them. After that, of course, the previous
content won't be recoverable.
The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 2597.
There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
(e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)
