1。我想问一下一个硬盘是不是最多只能有4个主分区？那能有多少个逻辑分区？是不是只要硬盘有地方就可以有很多个？
2。那什么系统必须装在主分区呢？比如WINDOWS系列可以装在主还是从？LINUX系列能装在主还是从？BSD系列呢？还有其他UNIX？
3。装LINUX和BSD是的顺序是不是随便？
4。听说BSD系统有个限制，应该装在8G前，是不是？
我想这也是一些新手装机所能面对的问题，我也是个新手，所以在这些问题上总是困惑。希望各位朋友能给予解答。谢谢！

再吻我吧

1：只能分4个主分区，逻辑分区不太清楚，不过估计没人超过26个吧。

2：BSD必须装在主分区上，Linux可以不必。其他的不清楚
3：我一直用grub来引导多系统。
4：没有这个限制。

一个硬盘上只能有4个分区, 最好是在安装一个系统前先看它的readme, 不要盲目的什么都不看就开始安装系统, 这样你会陷入困境的!

最多四个主分区，但扩展分区内的逻辑分区好像不会超过23个吧
dos下的算法
A,B去掉两个软盘
主分区一个：c（这样，逻辑分区最多）
剩下的为逻辑分区
所有分区不超过26个字母，所以逻辑分区最多23个
不知道我说的对不对

DOS primary partitions are limited to a maximum of four. DOS
extended partitions, a method for allowing additional partitions, can
number higher, and allow one to design a system with more than four
partitions, however, these extended DOS partitions are not bootable.

        FreeBSD on x86 systems suffers from the same limitation of four
primary partitions; however, in FreeBSD parlance, the 'parimary
partitions' are the 'slices' 1 - 4; in addition, in FreeBSD parlance, the
*working* equivalent of DOS 'extended partitions' are called 'partitions.'
That is, FreeBSD 'partitions' in FreeBSD perform the same task as DOS
'extended partitions' in DOS. This difference in terminology often
confuses newcomers to FreeBSD. To further confuse newcomers, DOS extended
partitions, as well as primary partitions, are recognized as slices under
FreeBSD. Although, FreeBSD is limited to 4 bootable FreeBSD slices, it can
mount more than four slices, be they FreeBSD slices, or slices
corresponding to other OS partitioning schemes. In this manner, FreeBSD is
far more flexible.
