Most computers use GPT these days. - -While creating the live or bootable USB, some tools (like [Rufus][1]) ask you the type of disk partitioning in use. If you choose GPT with an MBR disk, the bootable USB might not work. - -In this tutorial, I’ll show various methods to check the disk partitioning scheme on Windows and Linux systems. - -### Check whether your system uses MBR or GPT on Windows systems - -While there are several ways to check the disk partitioning scheme in Windows including command line ones, I’ll stick with the GUI methods. - -Press the Windows button and search for ‘disk’ and then click on “**Create and format disk partitions**“. - -![][2] - -In here, **right-click on the disk** for which you want to check the partitioning scheme. In the right-click context menu, **select Properties**. - -![Right click on the disk and select properties][3] - -In the Properties, go to **Volumes** tab and look for **Partition style**. - -![In Volumes tab, look for Partition style][4] - -As you can see in the screenshot above, the disk is using GPT partitioning scheme. For some other systems, it could show MBR or MSDOS partitioning scheme. - -Now you know how to check disk partitioning scheme in Windows. In the next section, you’ll learn to do the same in Linux. - -### Check whether your system uses MBR or GPT on Linux - -There are several ways to check whether a disk uses MBR or GPT partitioning scheme in Linux as well. This includes commands and GUI tools. - -Let me first show the command line method and then I’ll show a couple of GUI methods. - -#### Check disk partitioning scheme in Linux command line - -The command line method should work on all Linux distributions. - -Open a terminal and use the following command with sudo: - -``` -sudo parted -l -``` - -The above command is actually a CLI-based [partitioning manager in Linux][5]. With the option -l, it lists the disks on your system along with the details about those disks. It includes partitioning scheme information. - -In the output, look for the line starting with **Partition Table**: - -![][6] - -In the above screenshot, the disk has GPT partitioning scheme. For **MBR**, it would show **msdos**. - -You learned the command line way. But if you are not comfortable with the terminal, you can use graphical tools as well. - -#### Checking disk information with GNOME Disks tool - -Ubuntu and many other GNOME-based distributions have a built-in graphical tool called Disks that lets you handle the disks in your system. - -You can use the same tool for getting the partition type of the disk as well. - -![][7] - -#### Checking disk information with Gparted graphical tool - -If you don’t have the option to use GNOME Disks tool, no worries. There are other tools available. - -One such popular tool is Gparted. You should find it in the repositories of most Linux distributions. If not installed already, [install Gparted][8] using your distribution’s software center or [package manager][9]. - -In Gparted, select the disk and from the menu select **View->Device** Information. It will start showing the disk information in the bottom-left area and this information includes the partitioning scheme. - -![][10] - -See, not too complicated, was it? Now you know multiple ways of figuring our whether the disks in your system use GPT or MBR partitioning scheme. - -On the same note, I would also like to mention that sometimes disks also have a [hybrid partitioning scheme][11]. This is not common and most of the time it is either MBR or GPT. - -Questions? Suggestions?
