DHx: or HDx

[sim085]

I know that the name given the a partition does not make much of a difference. However while trying to install workbench I visited a lot of websites. In these websites I found people giving different names to partitions, such as; DHx, HDx, CFx, CHx, etc where x represents a numeric value. I used the term DHx. However I opened DOpus and it is asking me to insert HD0! So should I have named my partitions using the HDx terminology?

Probably DOpus is configured to load HD0: initially. Just change that configuration.

Thanks but do these terms really do any difference? For example could installer tool by default be set to look for HD0: and can it be changed without having to re-format?

Thank you for that ... I think I may go to the hdx style as well

DHx: is more logical since:

DFx: is your floppy drive
DHx: is logically your hrivesrive

it is all about preferance

So what does the letter 'D' stand for?

Umm. Disk?

... So DHx means Disk Hard!
