<title>Creating a file system on the new partition</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
Once the partition is created, we have to create a new file system on
|
|
that partition. To create an ext2 file system, the mke2fs command is the
|
|
correct choice. To create a reiser file system, the mkreiserfs command
|
|
should be used. To create a different kind of file system, the
|
|
appropriate command needs to be executed. The new partition is used
|
|
as the only option to the
|
|
command and the file system is created. If the partition is hda2
|
|
and ext2 is to be created, the user would run:
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote><literallayout>
|
|
|
|
<userinput>mke2fs /dev/hda2</userinput>

|
</literallayout></blockquote>

<para>

To use reiserfs the user would run:
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote><literallayout>

|
<userinput>mkreiserfs /dev/hda2</userinput>
