I am new to Linux world? I came from windows back ground. I have
understood that each logical partion in linux , is simlar to C: D: (or)
E: drives in windows,
 I am I correct? If so how to switch between these linux pations?

Thankx

Bharadwaj, 

Some reading is in order. If you have a working machine, type "cd
/whatever directory" to navigate around.  To see how it is laid out
type:

 df
 du 
 mount
 cat /etc/fstab
 cat /etc/mtab

Then look at the manuals for the above:
 man df
 man du
 man mount
 man fstab
 man fdisk

Then go to your distribution website and have a look at their manuals.
Have fun with it.

Regards, Marshall
