Format / mount


Recommended Posts

Trying to format and mount using unassigned devices. I did make an XFS file system and mounted "unassigned1" to it through the command line but usually this easily happens through the GUI. How would I basically start from scratch on disk 1 and mount "unassigned1" to it upon bootup through unassigned devices. Here is a screen shot on what it looks like. When I click mount the link is dead. These are new drives and I do not care if they get wiped or dumped. Using them for side storage right now.

Read this:

Remove the partition with no or unsupported file system ('unassigned1') and then format the disk.

Thanks. That worked fine. I completely forgot there were options for UD. I started from scratch on all of them and reformatted and created new partitions and mounted. They show up in a folder /mnt/disks/<unassigned disks> but I guess that's normal. Going to use them for some testing/etc. Will be almost humorous to see files being copied with SSD drives come to a complete stop.

Thank you.
