Re: Utilities to format partition?

Would it? The synopsis for fdisk that I have says this:

Kevin,


I was operating on the presumption that any previous posts that I had read referencing the use of fdisk and other utilities against /dev/hda1 were correct.

Since I have only used fdisk against the device (as you mentioned), I cannot comment on the accuracy of the previously provided information except to say that it wasn't corrected.

So, you are correct in your statement -- I was trying to clarifiy to Reuben (?) that the only partition that may need to be changed according to his original post was hda1 -- not necessarily the entire device.

Apologies for the confusion.
