Fdisk for linux system disk partitioning

In linux, the fdisk command is usually used to learn disk partitions. of course, for disks smaller than 2 TB, we basically use the fdisk command for partitioning. below we will briefly introduce the basic commands and scenario simulation common commands for fdisk operations on disks. fdisk-fdisk for linux system disk partitioning
The fdisk command is usually used to learn disk partitions. of course, for disks smaller than 2 TB, we basically use the fdisk command for partitioning. below we will briefly introduce the basic commands and scenario simulation commands for fdisk operations.
