CAUTION:
• The fdisk
device
[
partition-number
] command clears all data in a CF card or a USB disk. Save the files
in the CF card or a USB disk before partitioning it.
• The fdisk
device
[
partition-number
] command adds or reduces partitions. You should reconfigure the
paths of the application files as needed.
• If the device starts up from a CF card, the startup file and the configuration file must be in the first
partition of the CF card.
• To prevent a log file from affecting the startup file and configuration file, set the path of the log file to a
partition other than the first partition if you have partitioned the CF card or a USB disk. By default, the
system automatically sets the path of the log file to the second partition. If the path does not exist on the
CF card or a USB disk, you can use the info-center logfile switch-directory command to change the
path to avoid loss of the log file. For more information about this command, see Information center
commands
in
System Maintenance Command Reference
.
• After partitioning is completed, the sizes of the partitions may not be consistent with those specified in
the configuration. The error is smaller than 5% of the total memory of the CF card or a USB disk.
• Before removing a partitioned CF card or a USB disk, unmount all the partitions of the CF card or a USB
disk. Otherwise, the file system on the CF card or a USB disk may be damaged.
• Before partitioning a USB disk, ensure that the disk is not write protected; otherwise, the partition
operation fails, and you need to remount or re-plug the disk to restore normal access to the USB disk.
Setting prompt modes
The system provides the following prompt modes:
• Alert—The system warns you about operations that may cause problems such as file corruption and
data loss. To prevent incorrect operations, the alert mode is preferred.
• Quiet—The system does not prompt confirmation for any operation.
Follow these steps to set a prompt mode:
