| | | | | Sometimes we may want to format external USB drive. I recently encountered a situation, where I had bootable USB drive with operating system ready to install, but I wanted to remove all this stuff and use disk for storing data. I couldn't format this disk with GUI tools for some reason and I kept getting errors or information that it's not possible. In case you don't know, on Linux everything is always possible, so I quit that GUI tool, opened terminal and start playing with good old and simple programs. | |

| | | | | Last time I walked through creating a sparse disk image using dd and cp --sparse=always. OK, we have a disk image. Now what? Normally it would suffice to just set up a loop device and then mount, but this disk image doesn't just contain a filesystem. It has 4 partitions each with their own filesystem. This means in order to mount one of the filesystems we have to take a few extra steps. | |
