2.4 Creating a new partition
GParted manual
I read the entire manual and printed out the needed instructions.
GParted Live USB
1. Shrunk sda2 to 182.82 GiB, approximately 195 GB.
Note: GiBs are apparently not MiB x 1000
2. From 54.61 GiB unallocated space, created sda3 27.3 GiB
3. Left the rest unallocated, about 27.3 GiB
Reportedly Linux doesn’t read bootable flags, so I didn’t set a flag.
Looked at the partitions
lsblk
sda1 1 G part /boot/efi
sda2 182.8 G part /
sda3 27.3 G part /media/heidi/LFS
Also: – T is type and h is human readable
df -Th
Also – Disks app in Utilities on the GUI
Questions
Why is sda3 mounted in media? Did it mount automatically?
