Partitioning / Formatting using Linux
It is possible to divide the hard drive in several partitions. The instruction
below is described on the base of YaST and Suse Linux. This procedure is
similar under other Linux distributions.
- First open YaST. If necessary, you will need to authenticate yourself.
- Choose from the left side "System" and from the right field
"Partitioner".
- For security reasons a window will open and you will be asked whether
you are familiar with the partitioning. Confirm this with "Yes".
- The volume table of your system will appear.
- Now you can choose the desired volume, partition it or edit or delete
already existing partitions.
- To delete the standard NTFS partition please click on it and afterwards
on "Delete".
