Bonjour tous,
I have two HDDs (40+80G). The smaller one (/dev/hda)
has WinXP on it(hardly used), and bigger one
(/dev/hdb) has Debian Sid installed. I was checking
free space on /dev/hdb and by chance summed up all the
partition sizes. I was surprised to see that the sum
was considerably less than 80GB(I didn't even remember
that it was there). I did a cat /proc/partitions and
it showed that there was an ~18GB partition
(/dev/hdb10). Then I checked with cfdisk and it showed
the partion as FS=Linux but no type.
What are the various options that I use to format that
partion and use it? I did read about cfdisk but I just
want to make sure that I'm doing the right thing as it
is being done as root.
Thanks,
/KS
PS: The output of cfdisk is copied below:
