好吧最近又中二了，幻想自己能有一部苹果机。苹果机没有买，就已经在想怎么弄上个openSUSE上去。
搜一艘英文的openSUSE wiki，发现了一篇“SDB:Installation on a Mac”。 en.opensuse.org/SDB:Installation_on_a_Mac
好吧，认真看下来后，我选定了只安装openSUSE方案（to install only openSUSE）。按照wiki的说法，我可以直接跳到分区部分（If you intend to install only openSUSE, you can skip all the Preparation steps.）
接着是苹果机上的分区表：
All that is thus needed is to ensure that:
The first partition (/dev/sda1) is kept for the EFI boot partition, do not delete or format.
The second partition (/dev/sda2) is kept for OS X, do not delete or format.
The third partition (/dev/sda3) is kept for GRUB, so use for either Linux / or /boot
The fourth partition (/dev/sda4) is kept for Windows
The fifth and subsequent partitions are used for Linux as required, e.g. /, /home, /tmp, swap, etc.
很明显这个方案是给“dual-boot OS X and openSUSE”和“triple-boot OS X, Windows and openSUSE”这两种情况用的，并没有说明只安装openSUSE的情况。
我看过这段话“It is recommended that you keep OS X even if you don’t intend to use it, as this will allow you to install any firmware updates the Apple releases”，我也已经做好了不再安装任何硬件更新的准备（怎么说的我好像真的有一部苹果机一样？），那么wiki接下来又说道：“The EFI boot partition is not actually used by OS X to boot, but is believed to be needed for firmware upgrades”。
那我该不该该不该删掉“The first partition (/dev/sda1)”？删掉会造成什么影响？
