Active flag can be selected also for an extended partition - and I'm aware that some BIOSes can boot this way (generic code in MBR, extended partition set as active and holding GRUB).
As long as an x86 PC HD is not GPT partitioned, in which case primary/logical nomenclature is inapplicable, every partition defined in the end of its very first sector is a primary partition. Thus an extended partition entry in this location is a primary partition entry. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
