But I think below link will answer your question. http://linux.die.net/man/8/fdisk The *partition* is a *device* name followed by a partition number. For example, */dev/hda1* is the first partition on the first IDE hard disk in the system. Disks can have up to 15 partitions. See also * /usr/src/linux/Documentation/devices.txt*. A BSD/SUN type disklabel can describe 8 partitions A DOS type partition table can describe an unlimited number of partitions......... Correct me If i'm wrong in understanding your question. Hari!
