接磁盘逻辑结构浅谈-MBR和分区，我们接着说说有关的扩展结构-逻辑分区。因为LVM也偶尔制造一些麻烦，所以我们也捎带说说LVM。

EBR：扩展分区和逻辑分区

扩展分区和逻辑分区之关系

由于MBR里磁盘分区结构只有64字节的空间可用，而每个分区项需要16个字节，因此，MBR里最多只能存储4个分区。这就是为什么会有扩展分区和逻辑分区的原因：在一块磁盘上不受限于只能有4个分区，可以按需制作多个分区。那么，扩展分区是怎么实现的呢？

扩展分区和逻辑分区的关系，可以用下图表示，其中绿色块代表的是2048块扇区。很明显，每个逻辑分区前面都有2048块没有使用的扇区

逻辑分区的分区数据，就存储在这些没有使用的扇区里，准确的说，是储存在其中的第一个扇区里（这个扇区叫做扩展引导扇区，简称EBR）。虽然EBR使用和MBR一样的分区表结构。但是，不同于MBR分区表，每个EBR分区表都只是使用前两项记录。一项记录当前的逻辑分区，一项记录下一个逻辑分区。这样，EBR数据之间就构成了一个树结构，可以任意扩展

当然，这也意味着每个逻辑分区，除了第一个逻辑分区外，都是有两条分区数据的。有趣的是，这两条记录并不完全一样。

让我们综合一下。从MBR分区数据我们能够确定扩展分区，然后根据扩展分区，我们可以确定逻辑分区

验证

我们使用如下的数据来验证扩展分区和逻辑分区以及其间之关系

我们首先验证每个逻辑分区前都有2048块空闲扇区

接下来我们验证这些空闲的2048块扇区的第一块扇区里都有两个分区数据。当然，最后一块逻辑分区例外

一个逻辑分区的两条记录并不一致

我们验证一下fdisk的输出和磁盘MBR和EBR记录之间的关系

用到的命令

dd if=/dev/sdb bs=1 count=64 skip=446 2>/dev/null | od -v -tx1

for n in 14336 4210688 8407040;do \
fisrt_sector_number=$(expr $n - 2048);\
dd if=/dev/sdb bs=1 count=64 skip=$(expr ${fisrt_sector_number} \* 512  + 446) 2>/dev/null | \
od -v -tx1;\
done

{ 
dd if=/dev/sdb bs=1 count=64 skip=446 2>/dev/null | od -v -tx1;\
for n in 14336 4210688 8407040;do \
fisrt_sector_number=$(expr $n - 2048);\
dd if=/dev/sdb bs=1 count=64 skip=$(expr ${fisrt_sector_number} \* 512  + 446) 2>/dev/null | \
od -v -tx1;\
done
} | \
perl -nE '
chomp;print qq[$_ ];
if (/\s[0-9a-f]+\s*/) {
  @fields = split;
  print hex(qq{$fields[11]$fields[10]$fields[9]$fileds[8]});
}
print qq[\n];'

LVM：又一层包装

我们直接给出LVM的实际例子，供大家自行分析如下信息

1. 物理卷
2. 卷组
3. 逻辑卷

很明显，LVM有关的数据结构和关系都是记录在磁盘上的。

MBR的引导代码

提取引导代码

因为引导代码也是MBR的一部分，因此，调整提取MBR的命令即可提取之到文件，而后反编译之

dd if=path_to_your_disc bs=1 count=446 > path_to_mbr_code.bin
objdump -D -b binary -m i386 -Maddr16,data16 --adjust-vma=0x7c00 path_to_mbr_code.bin
# if you like the intel style
objdump -D -b binary -m i386 -Maddr16,data16,intel --adjust-vma=0x7c00 path_to_mbr_code.bin

看看效果

一睹真实引导代码风采

现在的引导代码并非只是简单的一段实模式下的二进制程序，因此反编译的结果就差强人意了。如果你想一睹真实代码风貌，请看grub-core/boot/i386/pc/boot.S文件内容
