Chapter 10. Partitioning and Booting
Objectives
In this lesson, you will learn:
• The benefits of partitioning
• How to create partitions
• How to configure start-up options
Note:
Partitioning and Booting is an additional section and not an integral part of the desktop course. Many
users, especially corporate desktop users who have system administrators to set up their computers for them will find this section irrelevant. Home users, or advanced Ubuntu users may find this extremely useful.
