amiga-fdisk - Amiga disk partitioning program
amiga-fdisk [
-l ] [
-v ]
device
amiga-fdisk is a program to partition harddisks under Linux/m68k. It uses
command line parameters similar to those of the PC
fdisk program, and
operates on the disk associated with
device. In interactive mode, it
behaves similarly to the
fdisk program.
- -l
- List partition tables of all disks. If this flag is given,
interactive mode isn't entered.
- -v
- Show version of the program.
Many of the command line options known from
fdisk have not been
implemented yet.
Using
amiga-fdisk on large harddisks (like larger than 2 GB) consumes
lots of memory, as the program currently tries to read in the entire RDB
blocks - which can be several MB if the (reported) geometry of the disk says
so (the RDB occupies the first two cylinders of the disk).
The whole stuff about interactive usage of
amiga-fdisk in this manpage
still has to be written.
