13.6.3.1 Partition settings
Size
To resize the partition, perform one of the following:
Point to the partition border. When the pointer becomes a double-headed arrow, drag the
pointer to enlarge or reduce the partition size.
Type the desired partition size in the Partition Size field.
To relocate the partition, perform one of the following:
Drag the partition to a new position.
Type the desired size in either the Free space before or Free space after field.
When you create partitions, the program may reserve some unallocated space for system needs in front of the
created partitions.
File System
You can either leave the partition unformatted, or choose between the following file system types:
NTFS is a native file system for Windows NT, Windows 2000, Windows XP, and later operating
systems. Choose it if you use these operating systems. Note, that Windows 95/98/Me and DOS
cannot access NTFS partitions.
FAT 32 is an improved 32-bit version of the FAT file system that supports volumes up to 2 TB.
FAT 16 is a DOS native file system. Most operating systems recognize it. However, if your disk
drive is more than 4 GB, it is not possible to format it in FAT16.
Ext2 is a Linux native file system. It is fast enough, but it is not a journaling file system.
Ext3 – officially introduced with Red hat Linux version 7.2, Ext3 is a Linux journaling file system. It
is forwards and backwards compatible with Linux Ext2. It has multiple journaling modes, as well
as broad, cross platform compatibility in both 32-bit and 64-bit architectures.
