Creating a Partition on a new R200?

Hi, I have new portege r200. Came from the factory with XP pro and one partition, taking up the entire drive. I would like to create more than 2 partitions on the disk. I have need to dual boot. Here, that I do not have an external cd burner, however have ext floppy disk and data key. I downloaded partition magic 8.0 shareware. Can I create 2 partitions without messing up the OS? If so, how? Is it better to create primary partitions or logical drives?

I did it successfully on my old laptop, which had a cd/DVD-ROM internal, but used F.Disk. Any advice?

Hello

Well, the magic of Partitions 8 is a very interesting tool for creating and managing partitions.
When more than four logical drives are required on a single physical disk, the first partition must be a primary partition. The second partition can be created as an extended partition that can contain all the space not partitioned remaining on the disc.
A primary partition is one that can be used as the system partition. If the disk does not contain a system partition, you can set up the entire disk as one extended partition.

In addition, you can create 2 partitions on you without any problems and in my opinion the 8 unit is the best tool to do.

  • My new computer came with a partitioned hard drive. I have not create the partition. What is it?

    original title: Partition of mystery

    I just got a new computer. It has a 2 TB hard drive that apparently has already been partitioned, creating a drive E. I have not create the partition. The files on the partition are old EULA, the .cabs, and .dll files, but this that baffles me, is that the two disks are the same size, 2 TB. It is the size of the disk itself. Whence comes this extra drive, and how these two readers may overlap?

    Should I remove this extra drive and if so, how can I do?

    Thank you

    Tim

    Wait, I'm CONFUSED! YOU can not HAVE a PC THAT IS 4TB SIZE!


    EDIT: Sorry, but Acer installed 2 HDD. (Wow!)

    Be sure not to remove the 2nd partition, because it IS a recovery or backup disk.

  • Cannot use disk utility to create the partition of the free space on the external USB drive.

    I have a red 3 TB Western Digital drive in a USB hard drive docking station.

    The reader is GPT, and I have two volumes on it (a single volume is "Microsoft reserved", another volume is NTFS).

    The other part of my drive is 1.5 TB of free space. I want to create a new partition with free space so that I can put backups Time Machine encrypted external hard disk.

    I checked free space on the drive with my Windows machine:

    DiskPart displays 2 partitions - a 128 MB and the other GB 1267 with 1526 MB of free space.

    I took the hard drive of my MacBook Pro running OS X El Capitan 10.11.3 and pulled towards the high disk utility, but for some reason, that it does not resemble the disk utility it is to see the free space, so I can't create a new volume.

    Here are a few screenshots:

    ... of the physical disk in disk utility (notice how it doesn't seem be all unallocated space on the disk to create a new volume):

    ... of the NTFS volume in disk utility:

    ... of information for the drive in disk utility:

    ... of information for the NTFS volume in disk utility:

    ... of the partitioning settings page. Notice how the sign is grayed out (I can't create another partition):

    I'm a new Mac user. My company recently gave me a Mac, so the first thing I want to do is to create a new partition on this external USB drive to put backups Time Machine figures on it.

    In the research I did find a way to do it on a mac computer without erasing the drive and starting over. But you can go to your windows computer and partition the free space of disks. Then use the mac to set the free space as mac os extended journaled. Here's what I found. http://www.PCWorld.com/article/2066191/how-to-partition-a-hard-drive.html the only other way would be to copy the file on the external drive, somewhere, so you can delete it and re partition for windows and mac. Then reinstall windows files. I'm not familiar with windows systems.

  • Re: Satellite L40 PSL48E: can I create a partition Vista installation disc

    Hello

    My Satellite L40 PSL48E came with a Vista recovery partition.
    As I despise Vista I bought a replacement drive and installed a new hard drive and installed XP pro.
    I retained the original drive in case I've never had a claim under warranty.

    Now, I find that, because of work, commitments, I occsionally use the despised Vista trash and wonder if it is possible to create a partition on the original disc installation disc so tha ti can create a system dual boot on my new drive.

    I am very reluctant to BUY a new Vista CD, since I already have a perfectly legal copy on a disk, which I am not using and I'll use it only rarely for this commitment to work.

    Any information received with gratitude

    Thank you Ron

    Hmm. If you have a HARD drive recovery option, then a complete image has been placed on the HARD drive and generally all cell phones with HARD drive recovery option is supported by a tool called TOSHIBA Recovery Disc Creator Toshiba.

    With this tool, you can create a Vista recovery DVD If the OS Vista, have been damaged, you can also try to start the computer by pressing the F8 key.
    This would allow an advanced boot menu.
    Here you must choose repair computer

    But note; This option is available only on laptops with HDD Recovery

  • Pavilion 500-307nd: create additional partitions without endangering the recovery option

    I just bought a new HP pavilion 500-307nd, it has a 2 TB hard drive. Currently, it contains the recovery partition (10 GB), the rest is used as one and only one primary partition. I would like to divide this (close to 2 TB) a partition into three partitions: a primer containing the system and software, two for the storage of data only. The recovery partition will remain intact. That would be a problem? I'll always be able to use the if necessary recovery partition?

    Bart, welcome to the forum.

    Here's a guide that should help you.  Before you begin you must make a backup of all your personal data.  If you have not done so, you should do the System Recovery discs for the computer, too.  This will allow you to recover the computer if you have problems creating the partitions.

  • Is anyway to create fifth partition and keep the basic hard disk?

    Hi, my laptop is g7 1207se Pavilion and the and HP has made 4 partitions (C for windows) and the other 3 for system files and recovery, I want to create a new partition for my files (so I can recover my system without losing them) or install other operating systems, but apparently if I want to create fifth partition I have to convert my hard drive in Dynamics by the practice that I won't be able to boot from any partition but the C, which means no recovery and no other operating system.

  • Create no partition Table partitioning

    Dear all,

    I have a table that is not partition, and it has about 20 G data... If I want that table with say DATE_M partition column

    Please can anyone suggest the best way to do it.

    Thank you

    To create a partitioned table

    (1) you must make a backup of the existing one you can take expdp or DEC

    (2) remove the table and create the same table now with partitions (a minimum score is required)

    you want a range of ex-based partition if you use a date column

    (3) loading data from the previous table into the new partitioned table, either by DEC or impdp, the inserts will be automatically in their respective partitions and you don't mention explicitly.

    Their is no other possible way to partition a non partitioned table, you can do than workarounds to minimize the downtime of the table trying different ways to load data into the partitioned table.

    You can use the enable row movement clause of create table and also use local indexes for easy maintenance partition.

  • Need to create the Partition in the history table

    Hello

    I have an audit table that stores the data for the last 8 years in it and the customer wants to retain the data for the last 8 years. Now as adding data to this table is increasing, there is a delay in execution of report which are acquired by querying on this table.

    Basically, they go a from date and to date. Then these date are compared with two columns of dates in the table. The condition of the query will be as below

    TRUNC (NVL (DATE1, DATE2)) > = TRUNC (TO_DATE (?, ' dd/mm/yyyy ""))

    AND TRUNC (NVL (DATE1, DATE2)) < = TRUNC (TO_DATE (?, ' dd/mm/yyyy ""))

    Users can query for any date range.

    I am thinking of creating a Partition of the range on this table for each month during the 8 years of data. Please suggest on the question of whether I should use partition interval range to make it more effective. And would also create an Index on this partition for the above two day columns.

    12 (months) SO * 8 (years) = 98 would be created partitions. This will not overload the schema of database/Tablespace? Y at - it another effective way to set the table.

    Please suggest and let me know for any clarification.

    There are 2 approaches (but not limited to 2) to create the Partition on an existing table:

    Note: There is no ALTER TABLE statement to convert a heap table to a partitioned table.

    1. create a temporary Partitioned table with the same types of data in the column. Take a dump of the original table (HEAP) export and import the dump into the newly created partitioned intermediate table. After checking the data file the original and rename the interim even as the original table.

    2 using the package Oracle DBMS_REDEFINITION automates the steps above from said (not exactly the same steps, however) and its done online - which means there is no required downtime, the original table may undergo DML operations during this process of redefinition.

    According to my understanding if let us know as a partition interval then in April if there is an inserted record then it will create a new partition for the month of April will be of value less than 30 April 2014 "and all other documents created in April will pass under it"

    Yes, it's a feature of 11g, which Oracle manages adding partitions as needed. In earlier versions DBA can add partitions manually from time to time. Reference www.gavinsoorma.com/2009/09/11g-interval-partitioning/

    Here the reason for check the sent_out_datetime NVL will be NULL for few records, so in this case we want to get the records for dates of mapping them to received_datetime

    In addition, try to replace the NVL with COALESCE and test it. This would help improve performance.

  • Create index partition in the partition table tablespace

    Hello

    I am running a work custom that

    * Creates a tablespace by day
    * Creates the daily table partition in the created tablespace
    * Removes the days tablepartition X
    * Removes the storage space for this partition of X + 1 day.

    The work above works perfectly, but it has problems with the management of the index for these partitioned tables. In the old database (10g - single node), all indexes and partitions exist in a BIG tablespace and when I imported the table creation script in the new database, I changed all the partitions table & index to go in their respective space.

    For example:

    Table_name... Nom_partition... Index_Part_name... Tablespace_name
    ============...================............====================...........=================
    TABL1... TABL1_2012_07_16... TABL1_IDX_2012_07_16... TBS_2012_07_16
    TABL1... TABL1_2012_07_15... TABL1_IDX_2012_07_15... TBS_2012_07_15


    But now, when the job is run, it creates the index in the tablespace TBS_DATA default.

    Table_name... Nom_partition... Index_Part_name... Tablespace_name
    ============...================.............====================...........=================
    TABL1... TABL1_2012_08_16... TABL1_IDX_2012_08_16... TBS_DATA
    TABL1... TABL1_2012_08_15... TABL1_IDX_2012_08_15... TBS_DATA


    I can issue alter index rebuild to move the index to its tablespace default, but how can I make sure that the index is created in the designated tablespace?

    NOTE: the partition/tablespace management work that I run only creates the partition of the table and not the index.


    The new env is a cluster of CARS of 2 nodes 11 GR 2 on Linux x86_64.


    Thanks in advance,
    aBBy.

    try something like this

    ALTER table tab_owner.tab_name add the partition v_new_part_nm
    values less (to_date('''|| v_new_part_dt_formatted ||'') ((', "DD-MON-YYYY)) tablespace ' | part_tbs
    update the index (ind1_name (partition ind_partition_name tablespace ind_part_tbs)
    ind2_name (partition tablespace ind_part_tbs ind_partition_name))
    ;

  • Create a partitioned table

    Hi all
    I want to create a table that may exist for the next 100 years (pessimistic how I am), or maybe for the next 1000 years (now, I expanded my mind) in Oracle 9i (... oh I can't help it). I want to create a partitioned table that will store the data into partitions on annual basis and scores on monthly basis, I create a table with partitions? If Yes, then how?

    * 009 *.

    Yes, 9i, you create explicitly in each partition. You would normally create not all partitions in future when the table was created in the first place - you would normally a process that regularly added additional partitions.

    11.1 and later versions, you can use range partitioning to have Oracle automatically creates new partitions that they became necessary.
