This article is about how to understand redhat 6.5. parted disk partitioning tool, the editor thinks it is very practical, so I share it with you to learn. I hope you can get something after reading this article.

8. Check the usage of mkpart to create partitions

(parted) help mkpart

Mkpart PART-TYPE [FS-TYPE] START END make a partition

PART-TYPE is one of: primary, logical, extended

FS-TYPE is one of: ext4, ext3, ext2, fat32, fat16, hfsx, hfs+, hfs, jfs, swsusp, linux-swap (v1), linux-swap (v0), ntfs, reiserfs, hp-ufs, sun-ufs, xfs, apfs2, apfs1, asfs

Amufs5, amufs4, amufs3, amufs2, amufs1, amufs0, amufs, affs7, affs6, affs5, affs4, affs3, affs2, affs1, affs0, linux-swap, linux-swap (new), linux-swap (old)

START and END are disk locations, such as 4GB or 10%. Negative values count from the end of the disk. For example,-1s specifies exactly the last sector.

'mkpart' makes a partition without creating a new file system on the partition. FS-TYPE may be specified to set an appropriate partition ID.

(parted)

9, create a disk partition, but the error is as follows

(parted) mkpart primary

Error: / dev/sdc: unrecognised disk label

10. According to the above analysis, there may be other configurations. Check the mklabel command.

(parted) help mklabel

Mklabel,mktable LABEL-TYPE create a new disklabel (partition table)

LABEL-TYPE is one of: aix, amiga, bsd, dvh, gpt, mac, msdos, pc98, sun, loop

WARNING: you are attempting to use parted to operate on (mkfs) a file system.

Parted's file system manipulation code is not as robust as what you'll find in

Dedicated, file-system-specific packages like e2fsprogs. We recommend

You use parted only to manipulate partition tables, whenever possible.

Support for performing most operations on most types of file systems

Will be removed in an upcoming release.

Warning: The existing file system will be destroyed and all data on the partition will be lost. Do you want to continue?

Parted: invalid token: 2

Yes/No? Y

Partition number? 2

File system type? [ext2]? Ext3

No Implementation: Support for creating ext3 file systems is not implemented yet.
