Re: newbie's question

Ad.1 you need to keep partition table somewhere. I guess in MSDOS format that will be space right after MBR. G. 3 lut 2013 19:18, "horseriver" <horserivers@gmail.com> napisał(a):

hi:)

I use fdisk to add a new partion on a image file. I find the start of partion 1 is alwayes set to 63 by default. That means partion 1 start at 63*512=32256 byte.

Here is my question:

1. The region from 512th bytes to 32256th bytes will do what ? Why partion 1 don't follow MSR's location ?

2. The image's magic number is at which offset ?

Thanks!
