22. Appendix B: Partitioning Layout Table: Numbering and Sizing

This table follows the same logical structure as the table above where you decided what disk to use. Here you select the physical tracking, keeping in mind the effect of track positioning mentioned earlier in Physical Track Positioning.

The final partition number will come out of the table after this.
