bootable

adj.可引导的；可启动的

The bootable flag is generally only useful on primary partitions, so setting it on logical partitions is normally discouraged. 而可启动的设定只对基本分割区有意义，所以一般都不鼓励在逻辑分割区使用这个设定。

Bootable floppy disks are generally used as a last resort to boot the installer on hardware that cannot boot from CD or by other means. 可启动的软盘一般被视为是在那些不能从光盘或其它方式启动的硬件上引导安装程序的最后一种方法。
