Seven Usages of Partitioning with GDISK
In today's world dominated by Windows, everyone must be familiar with the partitioning tool FDISK. And everyone must know its speed, which is really frustrating to wait for. Is there a better partitioning software? The answer is yes, let me tell you slowly.
Everyone must think of Partition Magic PM, but PM needs to be installed to be used. And the latest version does not support DOS. But if you have just bought a new hard drive, you must use FDISK to partition. So there is a new type of partitioning software. It is a version in Symantec's GHOST 2000, GDISK. It can support up to 18 hard drives. If you have installed Clone Era 2000, you can find GDISK.EXE in its installation directory. Just enter the DOS mode to run GDISK.EXE. GDISK has a total of seven
Usages:
Create a new partition Create Partition
Delete a partition Delete Partition
Activate a partition Active Partition
Hide a partition Hide Partition
Update MBR record MBR
Erase all data on the hard drive Diskwipe
The basic format for creating a partition is: gdisk disk/CRE{/PRI/EXT|/LOG}
|]
/EXT |/LOG :nth |/P:partn-no|/ALL}
gdisk/del/all means to delete all partitions. This command must be used after careful consideration. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences.
Example: gdiskl/del/pri/diskwipe means to delete the primary partition and erase the hard drive data. Activate a partition: gdisk disk/ ACT/P:partn-no means to activate which partition p: is which partition. It is worth noting that /p: means that C drive is the first, D is the second, and so on. I won't go into details here. Erase surface data of the hard drive: gdisk/diskwipe/dowipe means to erase the hard drive data. If there are users who still don't understand, they can use Gdisk/?to get help.
