vfat
— The VFAT filesystem is a Linux filesystem that is compatible with Windows 95/NT long
filenames on the FAT filesystem.
3.12.6 Editing Partitions
To edit a partition, select the
Edit
button or double-click on the existing partition.
Note
If the partition already exists on your hard disk, you will only be able to
change the partition’s mount point. If you want to make any other changes,
you will need to delete the partition and recreate it.
3.12.7 Deleting a Partition
To delete a partition, highlight it in the
Partitions
section and click the
Delete
button. You will be
asked to confirm the deletion.
Skip to Section 3.14, Boot Loader Installation for further installation instructions.
3.13 Partitioning with fdisk
This section applies only if you chose to use
fdisk
to partition your system.
To partition your system without using
fdisk
, please skip to Section 3.11, Automatic Partitioning for
automatic partitioning or Section 3.12, Partitioning Your System for partitioning with
Disk Druid
.
If you have already completed disk partitioning, skip to Section 3.14, Boot Loader Installation for
further installation instructions.
CAUTION
Unless you have previously used
fdisk
and understand how it works, we do
not recommend that you use it. It is much easier for new users to accidentally
corrupt or lose data using
fdisk
.
Disk Druid
is easier to understand than
fdisk
. To exit
fdisk
, click
Back
to
return to the previous screen, deselect
fdisk
, and then click
Next
.
