<p><a name="BId-drakxid-resizeFATChoose-pa2"></a>Each partition is listed as
follows: "Linux name", "Windows name", "Capacity".

<p><a name="BId-drakxid-resizeFATChoose-pa3"></a>"Linux name" is structured:
"hard drive type", "hard drive number", "partition number" (for example,
"sda1").
</p>
<p><a name="BId-drakxid-resizeFATChoose-pa4"></a>"Hard drive type" is "sd"
</p>
<p>This is standard for hard drives now and has nothing to do with SD
Memory Cards. Hard drives were previously prefixed "hd" for IDE drives or
"sd" for SATA drives but they are all now prefixed with "sd".

<p><a name="BId-drakxid-resizeFATChoose-pa5"></a>"Hard drive number" is
actually a letter and always follows "sd":
