Can os boot on logical extended partition

  • Thread starter Thread starter bgd
  • Start date Start date
Is there a long term mishap waiting? Is it harder on the drive or chipset?
The hd is clearly making a different noise than on a primary.I have always
had a primary for boot partition, have not a clue what my weird setup is
going to do.

You said it was booting up ok
so that means it works.
there should be no problems other than maybe slighlty slower access time...
 
dang it. I'm a gamer. Access time is important ;o)
Thanks for replies.
It's only another couple of hours to fix......

Ok...
I suppose you"ll be wanting every last drop of performance then!
 
No. XP (windows) is running on a logical drive within an extended
partition.
Redo it? It didn't get that unusual way by itself.
