This partition the hard disk, you can see all the partitions as follows:
fdisk -l
www ~ # fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 128.8 GB, 128849018880 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 15665 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x00000000
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 1 1945 15623181 82 Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/sda2 * 1946 4377 19535040 83 Linux

I wanto to know why create this partition /dev/sda3? and how use this partition?
should I need set /dev/sda3 as a boot partition?
In sda2 and sda3 can be installed any distro Calculate Linux. sda1 - their common swap, sda5 - shared data. You can install a newer version or another version of the distribution without a flash drive or livecd, with cl-install utility. To do this you will need a separate partition. If you have no such need, use it for backup, or keep it part of the data.
very good! thanks
