linux 格式化扩展分区(Extended) 2015-04-14 00:40 by 潇湘隐者, ... 阅读, ... 评论, 收藏, 编辑 如果你在Linux系统中格式化磁盘时遇到如下错误，那么表示你正在格式化一个扩展分区。
[root@GETTestLNX06 ~]# mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1
mke2fs 1.41.12 (17-May-2010)
mkfs.ext4: inode_size (128) * inodes_count (0) too big for a
filesystem with 0 blocks, specify higher inode_ratio (-i)
or lower inode count (-N).
直接格式化扩展分区是不允许的，只能格式化主分区和逻辑分区。那么那么应该如何格式化一个扩展分区呢，我们要么删除该扩展分区，创建一个主分区；要么在扩展分区上创建逻辑分区，如下操作所示1： 创建逻辑分区
[root@GETTestLNX06 ~]# fdisk /dev/sdb
