Anew repair technician reports that he or she is having trouble installing the operating system. the problem arises when he or she attempts to partition the hard drive. what might be the cause of the problem?

1. he attempted to put system files on an extended partition.

2. he attempted to put system files on a primary partition.

3. he partitioned the hard drive into one large section.

4. he partitioned the hard drive into four smaller sections.

The cause of the problem is he attempted to put system files on a extended partition.

Explanation:

A extended partition is a type of file system used by the linux kernel operating system, usually most of windows OS doesn't recognize this as an operative partition and if it does, the type of files are going to be in conflict with the partition "structure". Usually a ext partition has a small size in relation with a FAT or NTFS partition, that added to the file type would be the main issue for the repair technician. The main objetive to this partition is to emulate a RAM memory and allow the fast interchange of data to the processor.

The other options:   put system files on a primary partition, partition the hard drive into one large section or partition the hard drive into four smaller sections SHOULD NOT BE A PROBLEM to make a normal operative system install.
