Creating a partition
The create command lets you create a partition and specify the parameters of the
partition. The command uses the largest block of unused disk space to create the
partition. You can specify the partition type and the partition size. You can use
the /for switch with the create command to format the partition. Otherwise, the
partition is not formatted. You cannot create a dynamic disk partition.
Note:
When GDisk creates a FAT32 partition, it aligns the first data sector to a 4
KB boundary from the start of the partition.
The create command uses the following syntax:
gdisk disk /cre {/pri| /ext| /log}[/sz: {MB|pcent{p|%}}]
[/end] [/for [/q] [/ntfs[:vista|xp|2000]]
[/align[:chs|1mb]] [/v[:label]]] [/-32] [/ntfat16]
GDisk
gdisk32 disk /cre{/pri|/ext|/log} [/sz:{MB|pcent{p|%}}]
[/end][/for [/q][/ntfs[:vista|xp|2000]]
[/align[:chs|1mb]][/v[:label]]] [/-32] [/ntfat16]
GDisk32
For example, to create a FAT32 formatted partition that uses the entire disk, you
can use the following command:
gdisk 1 /cre /pri /for /q
