Partitioning is an electronic process of dividing Physical Hard disk space into group of drives / volumes.
There are 3 types of partitions:
Primary Partitions: It is required to install the Operating system. We can create up to 4 Primary Partitions.
Extended Partition: Extended Partition is the space for creating logical partitions.
No drive letter assigned for Extended Partitions, we can create only one extended partition.
Logical Partition: Logical Partitions can be created from Extended Partitions space.
*We can create up to 63 logical partitions in Red Hat Linux operating system.
