Hi,
In re-partitioning my hard drive, a question comes to me. I am using fdisk
to do the partition and I must select one partition as active partition. I
wonder what is the technical reason for this?
Let's say /boot is on partition 1, / is on partition 2, /home on
partiotion 3 and /mybld on partition 4. It does not matter which partition I
select as active partition from booting Linux point of view, then why do I
have to name one partition active?
Thanks.
