My Bus has an AFT and a FWD Cargo Compartment (like everybody knows).
There may be times when one or both fire bottles are u/s. The MEL says:
What does this mean?
(BTW, English is not my native language)

Both may be inoperative provided flammable or combustible cargo is not carried in the affected compartment.

Means, you cannot load any luggage or general cargo that could be ignited.
Bags with clothing could burn if they are ignited whilsted beeing transported in the hold (camping matches etc.).
So you just cannot use the affected hold.

E.g. if bottles have used due to a false warning in the aft hold one can suggest to leave aft empty and load the fwd CCMPT and go......
