_PARTITION_INFORMATION_MBR structure

Description

PARTITION_INFORMATION_MBR contains information for a Master Boot Record partition that is not held in common with a GUID Partition Table partition.

Members

PartitionType

Specifies the partition type. See PARTITION_INFORMATION for a list of system-defined partition types.

BootIndicator

Indicates, when TRUE, that the partition is bootable. When FALSE, the partition is not bootable.

RecognizedPartition

Indicates, when TRUE, that this is a partition with a recognized partition type. When FALSE this is a not a partition with a recognized partition.

HiddenSectors

Contains the number of hidden sectors in the partition.

PartitionId

PARTITION_INFORMATION_MBR structure

Description

Contains partition information specific to master boot record (MBR) disks.

Members

PartitionType

The type of partition. For a list of values, see Disk Partition Types.

BootIndicator

If the member is TRUE, the partition is a boot partition. When this structure is used with the IOCTL_DISK_SET_PARTITION_INFO_EX control code, the value of this parameter is ignored.

RecognizedPartition

If this member is TRUE, the partition is of a recognized type. When this structure is used with the IOCTL_DISK_SET_PARTITION_INFO_EX control code, the value of this parameter is ignored.

HiddenSectors

The number of hidden sectors to be allocated when the partition table is created.

PartitionId
