Introducing fdisk page 3 of 23


We can take a look at a disk's partition table by running fdisk, specifying a block device that represents a full disk as an argument:


# fdisk /dev/hda 

# fdisk /dev/sda

Note that you should not save or make any changes to a disk's partition table if any of its partitions contain filesystems that are in use or contain important data. Doing so will generally cause data on the disk to be lost.
