Hi Narender,
   
  The disc signature was introduced by Windows NT version 3.5, but is now used 
by several operating systems, including version 2.6 and later of the Linux 
kernel. Windows NT uses the disc signature as an index into its registry, where 
it stores the persistent mappings between disc partitions and drive letters. It 
also uses it in the boot.ini file to describe the location of bootable Windows 
NT partitions.[2] Linux uses the disc signature at boot time to determine the 
location of the boot volume

  I think this help u
   
  Thanks
