磁盘是怎么分区的在文章后面会谈到，先谈一下Linux文件系统的简单操作。不过在阅读本文之前，我假定读者们对Linux的磁盘与文件系统以及目录树已经有了初步的了解。
一、添加磁盘之前，先用fdisk -l查看磁盘的基本信息
fdisk -lDisk /dev/sda: 10.7 GB, 10737418240 bytes, 20971520 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes
Disk label type: dos
Disk identifier: 0x00043041
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 2048 2099199 1048576 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 2099200 20971519 9436160 8e Linux LVM
Disk /dev/sdb: 10.7 GB, 10737418240 bytes, 20971520 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes
Disk /dev/mapper/cl-root: 8585 MB, 8585740288 bytes, 16769024 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes
Disk /dev/mapper/cl-swap: 1073 MB, 1073741824 bytes, 2097152 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes说明：Linux系统的分区格式使用的是xyzN的格式，xy表示的是硬盘类型，如上面的执行结果，sd表示是SCSI硬盘，z表示的是硬盘序号，第一块硬盘是a，第二块硬盘是b，所以要查询Linux系统上有几块硬盘，只要注意这一点即可。N表示的是分区号。
三、首先查看未指派的分区名称，有的不一样，我的分别是/dev/sda和/dev/sdb，sda是系统分区，sdb是存储数据分区，可以看到10G的数据磁盘，我们现在执行分区，代码如下：
fdisk /dev/sdb //sdb为磁盘名称Welcome to fdisk (util-linux 2.23.2).
Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them.
Be careful before using the write command.
Device does not contain a recognized partition table
Building a new DOS disklabel with disk identifier 0x52d681d6.
The device presents a logical sector size that is smaller than
the physical sector size. Aligning to a physical sector (or optimal
I/O) size boundary is recommended, or performance may be impacted.
Command (m for help):【输入n回车，添加新分区，如果需要更多，请输入m回车看帮助】
Partition type:
p primary (0 primary, 0 extended, 4 free)
e extended
Select (default p):【输入p回车，P的意思是主分区】
Partition number (1-4, default 1):【输入数字1回车，分区数量】
First sector (2048-20971519, default 2048):【默认回车】
Using default value 2048
Last sector, +sectors or +size{K,M,G} (2048-20971519, default 20971519):【默认回车】
Using default value 20971519
Partition 1 of type Linux and of size 10 GiB is set
Command (m for help):【输入wq保存】
The partition table has been altered!

fdisk -lDisk /dev/sda: 10.7 GB, 10737418240 bytes, 20971520 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes
Disk label type: dos
Disk identifier: 0x00043041
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 2048 2099199 1048576 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 2099200 20971519 9436160 8e Linux LVM
Disk /dev/sdb: 10.7 GB, 10737418240 bytes, 20971520 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes
Disk label type: dos
Disk identifier: 0x52d681d6
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdb1 2048 20971519 10484736 83 Linux
Disk /dev/mapper/cl-root: 8585 MB, 8585740288 bytes, 16769024 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes
Disk /dev/mapper/cl-swap: 1073 MB, 1073741824 bytes, 2097152 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes五、挂载之前需要对分区进行格式化，
可以查看/dev/sdb1已经被默认分区，现在开始格式化此分区，一般格式化为ext4
注意：以下有几种常用磁盘格式，
格式化ext3格式,代码如下;
# mkfs.ext3 /dev/sdb1
格式化ext4格式，代码如下；
# mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1
我这里采用的是xfs磁盘格式；代码如下；
# mkfs.xfs -f /dev/sdb1
meta-data=/dev/sdb1 isize=512 agcount=4, agsize=655296 blks
= sectsz=4096 attr=2, projid32bit=1
= crc=1 finobt=0, sparse=0
data = bsize=4096 blocks=2621184, imaxpct=25
= sunit=0 swidth=0 blks
naming =version 2 bsize=4096 ascii-ci=0 ftype=1
log =internal log bsize=4096 blocks=2560, version=2
= sectsz=4096 sunit=1 blks, lazy-count=1
realtime =none extsz=4096 blocks=0, rtextents=0六、已经格式化成功。将磁盘挂载信息写入到系统配置文件中，不然开机不会自动挂载，代码如下；
# mkdir /www //新建挂载目录
# mount -a //挂载磁盘
# mount /dev/vdb1 /www //挂载磁盘
# df -h //查看挂载是否成功
# echo "/dev/vdb1 /www xfs defaults 0 0" >> /etc/fstab
