120. ifferent approaches to enumeration of the primary partitions In Linux In Linux every partition has a special symbolic name that encodes a hard disk containing a partition and a partition itself Partitions are addressed and accessed by using their symbolic names Symbolic names are automatically generated by Linux in accordance with the order of hard disks in BIOS and the order of partition records in the Partition Table Thus changing enumeration of the primary partitions can lead to changing of paths to some important resources In DOS The last versions of MS DOS use a rather sophisticated algorithm for a drive letter assignment A drive letter which is assigned to a partition depends on the order of records in the Partition Table Thus changing enumeration of the Copyright 1994 2014 Paragon Software GmbH All rights reserved 68 primary partitions affects the drive letters assignment In early versions of MS DOS it could even lead to the unavailability of a partition The program provides the ability to change enumeration of the primary partitions This feature will allow you to fix problems concerning an inappropriate order of partitions In order to modify enumeration of the primary partitions you should take the following steps 1 Select a hard disk on the Disk Map 2 Call a context menu for the selected object by the right mouse click then select Change Primary Slot There are other ways to start up this function ple
