1. List the 5 steps (exact commands) you would enter in order to
format an ext3 file system on hard drive partition /dev/sdb2,
label it BACKUP, set its maximum mount count to 50, check it for
errors and mount it on directory /mnt.
You should assume the mount point and the hard drive partition
already exist and that the partition has never been formatted.
