1 2种分区结构简介
MBR分区
硬盘主引导记录MBR由4个部分组成
主引导程序（偏移地址0000H--0088H），它负责从活动分区中装载，并运行系统引导程序。
出错信息数据区，偏移地址0089H--00E1H为出错信息，00E2H--01BDH全为0字节。
分区表（DPT,Disk Partition Table）含4个分区项，偏移地
址01BEH--01FDH,每个分区表项长16个字节，共64字节为分区项1、分区项2、分区项3、分区项4
结束标志字，偏移地址01FE--01FF的2个字节值为结束标志55AA
GPT分区
GPT:GUID（Globals Unique Identifiers） partitiontable 支持128个分区，使用64位，支持8Z（512Byte/block ）64Z （ 4096Byte/block）
使用128位UUID(Universally Unique Identifier) 表示磁盘和分区 GPT分区表自动备份在头和尾两份，并有CRC校验位
UEFI (统一扩展固件接口)硬件支持GPT，使操作系统启动
2 fdisk的使用
2.1 fdisk命令的基础
[root@centos7 mnt]$ dd if=/dev/fdisk /dev/sdb
Welcome to fdisk (util-linux 2.23.). Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them.
Be careful before using the write command. Device does not contain a recognized partition table

Command action

b edit bsd disklabel # 编辑磁盘标记
c toggle the dos compatibility flag # 切换dos兼容标志
d delete a partition # 删除一个分区
g create a new empty GPT partition table # 创建一个空的GPT分区表
G create an IRIX (SGI) partition table # 创建一个IRIX分区表
l list known partition types # 列出已知的分区类型
m print this menu # 打印菜单
n add a new partition # 添加一个分区
o create a new empty DOS partition table # 创建一个空的DOS分区表

t change a partition's system id # 改变一个分区的类型
u change display/entry units # 改变显示的单位
v verify the partition table # 验证分区表
w write table to disk and exit # 写分区表并退出
x extra functionality (experts only) # 高级功能 Command (m for help):
2.2 fdisk实战
例子： 使用fdisk工具给/dev/sdb（100G）分区满足下面几个要求
3个主分区一个扩展分区
/dev/sdb1分区类型为Linux LVM，大小为30G
/dev/sdb2分区类型为swap，大小为20G
/dev/sdb3分区类型为Linux， 大小为10G
/dev/sdb5分区类型为linux,大小为10G
保留40G留作后用

4 三种分区的比较
fdisk只能用于MBR分区，gdisk,parted可以用于GPT分区。
fdisk大多数运维工作人员已经习惯这个交互模式。
parted命令在创建删除分区使用命令比较方便，但是功能不是太完善，没有备份还原命令。
gdisk在分区上命令和fdisk风格一样， 使用方便，学习难度低且功能强大，推荐使用。
