1 I'm partitioning a HD with gdisk. I usually chose the default
2 partition type (8300 Linux filesystem), except for swap. I just
3 noticed that there are 2 other types of partition that appear
4 relevant: 8302 Linux /home and 8304 Linux x86-64 root (together with
5 8303 Linux x86 root).
6
7 The names are suggestive enough, but I have no clue about what does it
8 mean to use 8304 instead of just plain 8300 for /.
9
10 Any insight?

12 TIA
