The answers I received were the first 4 partitions are considered primary partitions. Unless you create more than 4 partitions which would put those in the extended partition catagory and unless you wanted to make one of those extended partitions primary partitions then you don't need to check the box that says "force to be primary" My original question is below: Newbie questions. Installting RHEL 3 and creating 3 partitions / /boot swap There is a checkbox when creating each partition that says "force to be primary partition" Should I select one of the above paritions to be the primary or does Linux automatically make / the primary or /boot the primary?
