Ls-l/dev/sdb*

The output results are as follows:

For example, if we want to use partition SDB1, we first format it, and the tool used is mkfs, because it supports more file systems.

Mkfs.ext4/dev/sdb1

Cut a picture, as follows:

The file /etc/fstab will be mounted on the partition configuration and saved.

Type the command: vim +/etc/fstab

Such as:
