This page maybe should maybe be renamed to "List of Partition Types" or similar. 20:47, 24 May 2010 (UTC)

Actually, it is only an "List of MBR Partition Types", and there are several other possible partitionning schemes around (GPT, RDB, GEM...). So either we should rename it to make it obvious it lists MBR types, or add columns with IDs for these other partitioning schemes types. Mmu man (talk) 15:56, 8 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Move to "List of MBR Partition Types" then. --M4gnum0n (talk) 19:08, 16 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
From 9 October 2006, when this page was created, until 23 April 2010, this page was simply a redirect to Disk partitioning. Since April, the table of partition types has been here- just a table. I feel this content should be added as a new section on the Master boot record article, at least until there is more content besides the table to justify its own page. Then revert this page to the Disk partitioning redirect it's been for most of its life. 64.128.111.166 (talk) 19:28, 17 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Agree on that, too. Which of the two, then? Move or merge? Awaiting other opinions. --M4gnum0n (talk) 23:12, 21 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
