The partition table has been altered!

Calling ioctl( ) to re-read partition table.

Syncing disks.

The partition type used, c , indicates that the partition will contain a FAT filesystem. This enables compatibility with Windows and Mac OS X systems and is also necessary for most camera flash-memory cards and digital music players.

Once the partitions have been created, they can be formatted with mkfs :

# mkfs -t vfat -n spreadsheet-F32 /dev/sdb1

mkdosfs 2.10 (22 Sep 2003)

# mkfs -t vfat -n database-F32/dev/sdb2

mkdosfs 2.10 (22 Sep 2003)

You may need to remove and reinsert the drive to force the kernel to load the new partition table before you can format the partitions.

If you have ever used your USB drive without a partition table (formatting /dev/sda instead of /dev/sda1 , for example), erase the master boot record (MBR) before partitioning to prevent udev from later detecting the drive as unpartitioned and mounting it incorrectly:

# dd bs=1k count=1 if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdb

2.8.3.2. ...using a Linux filesystem such as ext2 on a USB storage device?

# mkfs -t ext3 /dev/sdb2

2.8.3.3. ...accessing USB storage from a nongraphical application?

2.8.3.4. ...manually mounting a USB storage device?

When you're in runlevel 3 (character mode), your USB storage devices won't be automatically mounted. You can still use USB storage; you just have to mount it by hand:

# mkdir /mnt/usbdisk1

# mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/usbdisk1

The SCSI disk IDs are sequentially assigned (the first USB disk found since boot is /dev/sda , the second is /dev/sdb , and so forth) but you may need to experiment to find the right value.

When you're done with the storage device, unmount it before unplugging it:

# umount /mnt/usbdisk1

The unmount command is spelled umount ; there's only one n .

Chapter 3. Using Fedora on Your Notebook

Many of the topics in this chapter apply to both desktop and notebook systems (and, to a lesser extent, server systems), but become more complex in a mobile environment.

3.1. Power Management

For many years, power-management interfaces have been proprietary and required custom software supplied by the hardware vendor in order to function well (even when they purportedly adhered to industry standards). The situation is slowly improving, and Fedora contains good tools for power management on well-behaved systems.

3.1.1. How Do I Do That?

3.1.1.1. Using gnome-power-manager to conserve power

Fedora Core does not include the KDE ACPI modules. However, you can use gnome-power-manager in KDE by starting it manually: press Alt-F2 or open a terminal, and type:

$gnome-power-manager

A second power-management icon will appear in the KDE panel. You can disable KDE's icon through the Control Center menu option; go to Power ControlLaptop Battery and deselect the checkbox labeled "Show battery monitor."

gnome-power-manager will automatically be started next time you enter KDE.
