Use the Partition Values dialog box to:

• Set the format type for each partition

Partitioning and formatting settings are specific to the Pre-OS Agent.

Following is a description of each of the features in this dialog box.

Size Specification

Part. No. Column

Displays each partition number based on the number you specified in the Partition Properties dialog box.

Size Column

Specify the size for each partition by double-clicking each cell. The value is dependent upon the Size Specification (Percent or MB) that you selected.

Note:
– If you specify several partitions of equal percents, the actual partition sizes may differ because of internal cylinder alignments.
– If you do not allocate the full disk space, the system prompts you to automatically extend the last partition to include the remaining disk space.

To automatically assign the remaining available disk space, select the Rest option.

The last item in the Size column is the total allocated disk space.

Type Column

Specify the formatting type by double-clicking each cell.
