  • How to partition a Windows 10 XPS 15 9550 and safely add Linux?

    I just got my new XPS 15 and (cautiously) implemented as a workaholic scientific data. Windows 10 will be my main o/s, but I also want Linux.

    There is so much discussion on the forum I do not know what direction to follow.  It seems that the risk of dual-boot installation wiping areas of recovery Dell o/s during the partitioning of the disk.  So, it might be safer to just run Linux from a flash drive (or even run cygwin).

    On the other hand, it seems crazy to not partition a 1 TB drive, in any case. (On my desktop on measure I have partitions for operating systems, programs and data).  So, I need to know how to partition without risk - whether or not I put Linux on one.

    Are there standard operating procedures or guidelines of Dell on the partitioning and Configuring Linux in a dual-boot environment?

    Thank you!

    With dual-booting Linux and Windows, the Windows boot loader is not used - you are using the Linux boot loader (unless you choose the WUBI installation. Modern Linux distributions can use UEFI, and some can even use Safe Boot. Turn off Safe Boot in the BIOS and install Linux. Linux boot loader will be used and will give you the option to start Windows or Linux.

  • Omen of HP: How to partition again my SSD 512 HP omen?

    I recently bought a HP omen (windows 8.1, i7 processor, clock speed of 2.5 GHz, 512 GB SSD, 16 GB of DDR3 RAM, 4 GB of VRAM).

    I'm having a problem with disk management (partitioning). When I open 'My computer', I noticed that my SSD is partitioned into two parts - CBank (460 GB) and Dshore (14 GB, HP recovery drive).

    Previously, I used to partition my HARD drive into two so that I use my Cshore to the files system and Dshore storage and program purposes. I work with many important files and programs that I fear could be lost in the event of a recovery of the system. I'm not even being able to partition my 460 GB CBank now under disk management.

    Please advice me in this regard on how to partition my CBank further and it is advisable to do this with SSD recent based computers laptops like mine.

    The first thing you need to do is to create a USB stick recovery. You will need a 16 GB flash drive.

    Be aware that any chenges in the recovery partitions will result in the loss of the ability to recover start-up or inside windows menu. Do not save anything in the score!

    Why do you say that you can not even partition your C: partition in disk management?

    Your operating system is partitioned into GPT format with UEFI support.  That means the main four-partition MBR partitions type limit does not apply. If you reduce the C: partition, you should be able to create multiple partitions without problem. Do not use the same drive letter that has the recovery partition.

    I highly recommend that you use a cloning software to clone a copy of your SSD, as he is currently in an external hard drive. I recommend using Backup software Paragon & Recovery 15.

    WARNING: since I'm a Microsoft MVP, Paragon Software provides copies me of reviewer of their software for me to see and use. I had great results with their backup products. Power completely backup hard drives allows me to really put the loans of HP product through the grinder.

    It is possible that you clicked the 'Block Images' item in the context menu by attempting to save an image.
    Check the image exceptions: Tools > Options > content: Load Images: Exceptions - see the web content, pop-ups, fonts and language settings

    A way to see what images are blocked is to click on the favicon (Site ID icon) on the left side of the address bar.
    Click on the "More information" button opens the Security tab of the "Page Info" window (also accessible via "tools > Page Info").
    Go to the tab Media of this "Page Info" window.

    Why not install Linux under VM?  No partitioning or boot sector don't risk ca OSX.  And unless you plan to video editing in Linux, the "virtual video driver" should be sufficient for all operations.

    By the way... VM runs simultaneously with OSX to share information.  Virtual machine image can live on an external drive, so DO not take room away from OSX.

  • How to partition a hard drive for a B50-70 for Linux? No problem with that?

    Hello

    How to partition a hard drive for a B50-70?

    I want to install Linux and keep Windows 8.1 also.

    This will affect the software factory example: back up hard drive function, OKR?

    Problems partitioning B50 of the 1970s?

    Is it acquisitions have 8.1 Windows on a laptop Lenovo-B50-7?

    What will happen if I got rid of Windows 8.1 operating system?

    Thanks in advance.

    Information on the machine:

    B50-70

    Model name: 20384

    Windows 8.1

    I've not seen / heard of successful use of the flash drive for recovery purposes. The default software using optical disk, when I used it on my G580.

    If your laptop does not have a CD / DVD burner, you may need to contact them directly to discuss this option.

    As to where he is? It is a hidden partition on the hard drive, is usually not accessible.

    Cloning the hard drive can not return to that partition hidden - it would be a little bit the clone of the drive to work.

    I recommend to download your manual of maintenance on the Support site and learn more about the 100% specific for your laptop recovery process.

  • How to partition a table

    Hi all

    I use oracle 10g R2 64 bits on 64-bit windows server 2008.

    I am facing problem with a table, which seems to be supposed to be a table partitioned, because it expects the 80000 lines per year.

    This is the normal table for the table script

    create table Leave_Request (Leave_request_id number primary key,
                                              emp_id number references emp(emp_id) not null,
                                              leave_type_id number references leave_types(leave_type_id) not null,
                                              leave_apply_date date not null,
                                              leave_from_date date not null,
                                              leave_to_date date not null,
                                              remarks varchar2(3000));
    

    What is known, is that an index would be created to Leave_request_id automatically.

    now, my question is how to partition? How to create its index score?

    I read a few pages on the partitions and the notion of partitioning, but always confused with my situation.

    an example would be much appreciated.

    Thank you.

    First of all you must decide the column on which you want to partition in function. As you expect 80000 lines per year, you can partition it on the date column for example leave_apply_date with the partition of the RANGE.

    What is known, is that an index would be created to Leave_request_id automatically.

    No you need write explicitly create index statement to create indexes.

    now, my question is how to partition?

    Here is an example:

    CREATE TABLE sales_range

    (salesman_id NUMBER (5),)

    salesman_name VARCHAR2 (30),

    Sales_Amount NUMBER (10),

    Sales_Date DATE)

    PARTITION OF RANGE (sales_date)

    (

    PARTITION sales_jan2000 VALUES LESS THAN (TO_DATE('02/01/2000','MM/DD/YYYY')),

    PARTITION sales_feb2000 VALUES LESS THAN (TO_DATE('03/01/2000','MM/DD/YYYY')),

    PARTITION sales_mar2000 VALUES LESS THAN (TO_DATE('04/01/2000','MM/DD/YYYY')),

    PARTITION sales_apr2000 VALUES LESS THAN (TO_DATE('05/01/2000','MM/DD/YYYY'))

    );

    How to create its index score?

    Just add keyword LOCAL at the end of the create index example statement

    CREATE INDEX abc_ix_01 ON test (last_update_time) LOCAL app_index TABLESPACE;

    For more information, read Tables and partitioned indexes .

  • How to partition a new laptop with Windows 8 is installed?

    I just bought a Sony Vaio with Windows preinstalled 8 and I want to have 2 partitions on the hard drive. How can I make a new partition? I need to format and reinstall Windows 8? Because I have no CD with drivers.

    Do not touch the recovery Partition! (If this thing ever go belly, use you the recovery Partition to restore your PC to factory conditions).

    Yes, according to the instructions contained in the bonds shrink & create a new partition.

    You do whereas the W8 is running, if you follow the instructions that you should have no problem.

    I use this method on a regular and reasonable and have never had any problems.

  • How to partition my new Portege Z930 HARD drive?

    Hi all

    I recently bought the Toshiba Portege Z930. I would like to create a new partition (for example D: /) on your hard drive, to store data, music, etc., and let the current C: / drive only for the use of the operating system.

    The problem is that I can't follow the normal procedure of partitioning my HD (via the Windows disc or by other software such as EaseUS Manager) because my Portege Z930 already has 4 primary partition created by default! Namely, these are:
    -1 1.46 GB recovery partition
    -1 8 GB hibernation partition
    -1 (hidden) 9.96 GB primary partition and finally
    -1 219 GB main partition

    As said, there are currently 4 primary partitions, which corresponds to the maximum number of primary partitions, I have. To create a new partition, one of these 4 must be transformed into a logical partition.

    I don't have to know if such a thing would be correct, or it would be the cause of the problems of the operating system etc. Also, I don't know which of the 4 above is more appropriate be transformed into a logical partition...
    I tried to contact Toshiba but the contact is very difficult with them.

    (1) does anyone have an opinion well informed about this?... happened... ?
    (2) I should I turn one of the 4 primary partitions above in a logic (and if so, where?)
    (3) what is the use of 4 partitions mentioned above?

    Thanks in advance for your comments,

    Hello
    Windows 7 is pre-installed on this laptop?
    Windows 7 needs the first (1.46 GB) partition to store files for the repair of the system.
    For example: in case something goes wrong with the Windows 7 system is able to automatically repair and this backup files on that partition. Don t touch!

    The primary partition (hidden) 9.96 GB seems to contain the image of Toshiba files.

    These image and music files is very important in the case where you want to create the Toshiba recovery disc (or USB) or you want to retrieve the laptop using Toshiba HDD recovery option. Don t touch if you haven't created the recovery disc!

    The main score of 219 GB seems to be the system partition. This partition contains the Win 7 OS.
    The 8 GB partition is not known to me but you wrote there seems to be a hibernation partition. Maybe its required for hibernation data.

    However, first I recommend you to create a recovery disk.
    It is an essential environment where you want to set the laptop back to factory settings.
    You can change the partitions on the HARD disk.

    In General, you can have 3 primary and 1 extended partition or 4 primary partitions.
    Extended partitions can contain logical partitions for example: private data.

  • HP envy m6 w103dx: how to make new partitions?

    The thing is that if I use the disk management software, it does allow me to have my desired partition size, if I do the partition during the installation of Windows and then I have to lose my OS and I read on the so pure support forum, I installed OS, I'd lose software recovery and content of the recovery partition is visible and they cannot be reinstalled.

    So I'm always reluctant to do a clean install, because I don't really want to lose the recovery options, but don't really care about OS.

    @Tayyab1

    If you try to reduce the C partition and are not able to reduce beyond a certain point, this is often due to locked file - try turn off windows system restore to the C partition, reboot and then temporarily disable the pagefile.

    I hope that you will now be able to reduce the partition to the size you require - once this done, re-enable the system restore and page file.

    Kind regards

  • How to partition the Hardrive on Satellite L550?

    Will set up the new Satellite L550 WINPro and partitioned the HDrive which, on the finish, did not show the "C" drive with the partition I have allocated to it as usable. I called the support & informed the other space I had partitioned was hidden and unusable. Support could not advise me how to re - install 2 partitions can be used out of their allocation of work to do.

    I'm used to Sony Vaio XP where you can partition the disks as much as you want which are all usable. The beauty of having a separate drive to store your documents and other sensitive files on, is that, if you ever get to make a recovery, the partitioned drive assigned to these is not lost.

    You are not sure if Toshibas are capable of it?

    Can someone help with how partition USEFUL disks on this laptop please?

    Thanks in advance.

    To be honest I don t know if Satellite L550 procedure nine collection or old, but I know that new Satellite A660 has it with works by great walls. I'll try to explain it and you check to see if the same thing can be done on your laptop satellite

    -Recovery starts and you will see a WARNING at the beginning
    -on the next step, you can choose factory default software recovery
    -on this next step choose the custom size partition recovery recovery method (on this point, you can choose the size of the C drive, where the operating system must be installed
    -continue and complete the installation of recovery

    When the BONE is completely installed, you will see a partition C only (Windows Explorer). Enter computer management and go to disk management. On the right side, you will see the structure of HARD drive and a large unallocated area (black color). Use this box to create own partition/partition (logical drive).
