Why do Linux distros not have C ,D Drives?

[primal hollow]

I used to be a windows user , I haven't seen any drive letters in Linux , I find it very convenient btw , but just out of curiosity, does Linux not support this partitioning?

[polar pier]

uh

C drive is a windows thingy

no it doesn't support this partitioning since its not windows

u can partition your disk

[rancid dagger]

You can make partitions in linux as well and assign drive letters to them

The thing is no one uses letters here usually

[primal hollow]

So where can I see the partitions? I see it in windows with drive letters, how is it represented in Linux distros?

[polar pier]

if you run lsblk in your terminal, you can see your partitions

like this

and the "MOUNTPOINTS" is the path from where u can access the drive

[rancid dagger]

Or you can use gparted

Ig that will be easier for you

[polar pier]

bruh

it'll give the same info

[rancid dagger]

he's a beginner

[polar pier]

yes? and blasting him with gparted will only confuse him

@polar pier Here you have created partitions for nvme0n1 right , but can you see these in the root folder? In windows I believe disk partitions are at the top of the hierarchy. Will the partitions that you created be immediately under the root folder?

[polar pier]

no, you won't see the partitions in root immediately, you will have to mount it
