10. What is the problem of dynamic disk during ubuntu installation? 

Ans :  It is not possible to install Ubuntu in such a dynamic partition.

11. How many partition types are there in system? 

Ans :  The total data storage space of a PC HDD on which MBR partitioning is implemented can contain at most four primary partitions, or alternatively three primary partitions and an extended partition.

12. What is MBR partition?

13. What is GPT partition? 

Ans :  GUID Partition Table (GPT) is a partitioning scheme that is part of the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface specification; it uses globally unique identifiers (GUIDs), or UUIDs in the Linux world, to define partitions and partition types. It is designed to succeed the Master Boot Record partitioning scheme method.

14. Which partition type is being used in your own PC?
