Overview
In order to use a physical storage device (e.g. Hard Disk, USB Flash memeory, SSD, etc.), the first step is to create partition(s) on it. There many different ways to partition a physical storage device. The two most common partition schemes used on Intel based micro-computer systems are MBR and GPT. Detail about the MBR partition scheme can be found here, and GPT partition scheme can be found at [1].
On most Linux systems, fdisk or parted can be used to create, view, and manage MBR and GPT partition.
