// Module included in the following assemblies:

// <List assemblies here, each on a new line>

// Base the file name and the ID on the module title. For example:

// * file name: help-mkpart.adoc
|
|
// * ID: [id='help-mkpart']
|
|

// The ID is used as an anchor for linking to the module. Avoid changing it after the module has been published to ensure existing links are not broken.

// The `context` attribute enables module reuse. Every module's ID includes {context}, which ensures that the module has a unique ID even if it is reused multiple times in a guide.

= Help command for creating a new partition
|
|
|
|
To get help on how to make a new partition, type: `help mkpart`.

(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: udf, btrfs, nilfs2, 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.

[NOTE]
|
|
====
|
|
* Setting filesystem type (`FS-TYPE`) will not create an ext4 filesystem on /dev/vdc1. You still have to create the ext4 filesystem with `mkfs.ext4`.
|
|
* A DOS partition table's partition types are primary, logical, and extended.
|
|
* Providing a partition name under GPT is a must. In a GPT partition table, the partition type is used as the partition name.
