- PARTITION(8) Minix Programmer's Manual PARTITION(8)
- NAME
- partition - make a partition table
- SYNOPSIS
- partition [-mf] device [type:]size[+*] ...
- DESCRIPTION
- Partition makes a partition table on device using the types and sizes
- given. It may be used in combination with repartition(8) for automatic
- installation of Minix.
- You may give up to four type:size[+*] specifications for the partitions.
- You may also specify holes before, between, and after the partitions. A
- hole differs from a partition specification by not having a type.
- The first hole is by default 1 sector to make space for the primary
- bootstrap and the partition table. The other holes are 0.
- The type field is the type of the partitition in hexadecimal. The size
- field is the partition's size in sectors. The + or * may optionally be
- added to indicate that the partition must be expanded to contain any
- leftover space on the device or to mark the partition active.
- Partitions are padded out to cylinder boundaries, except for the first
- one, it starts on track 1. Some operating systems care about this.
- Minix and MS-DOS do not.
- OPTIONS
- -m Minix only, no need to pad partitions. This is the default for
- subpartition tables.
- -f Force making a partition table even if the device is too small.
- EXAMPLE
- partition /dev/hd0 01:16384 81:40000 81:2880* 06:20000+
- Partitions disk 0 into an 8 Mb DOS partition, 20 Mb Minix /usr, 1.44 Mb
- Minix / (active), and a DOS partition of at least 10 Mb at the end of the
- disk. (06:0+ would have been ok too, it's just a sanity check.)
- SEE ALSO
- hd(4), part(8), repartition(8).
