I just created new partitions on hdb of type:
hdb1 - primary
hdb2 - extended
hdb5 - logical
hdb6 - logical
I was able to make the filesystem of on hdb1 using
mkfs -t ext2 /dev/hdb1
For the logical partitions Im not sure if I can do the same thing
mkfs -t ext2 /dev/hdb5
mkfs -t ext2 /dev/hdb6
or whether I should use
mke2fs -t ext2 /dev/hdb2 and it will do it for both logical drives.
I guess after reading the man pages Im still not clear on the difference
between mkfs and mke2fs and when each should be used.
And I regret not being able to make the talk given on the linux
filesytem and such.
Thanks.
