Disk partitions
Hi all
I am a adding a disk in my storage box. then i am creating a partition. # fdisk /dev/sdb .. ... After that partition, this disk is called as 'raw device or block device. |
Essentially a duplicate of
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...ux-4175611133/ You seem to be confused on drives vs partitions. /dev/sdb is a drive, /dev/sdb will always be the raw drive, it will never be a partition. When you create a partition on /dev/sdb, that partition will be called /dev/sdb1. The second partition will be /dev/sdb2, etc. /dev/sdb is always the raw drive. |
