→Investigation 2: Create partition (command-line method)
# Create a new primary partition on the drive, using up all the available free (unpartitioned) space. Tip: in fdisk use the 'h' command to get a list of all available commands.
# Don't forget to save your changes.
# Now we have a partition /dev/vdb2. But there is no filesystem on this partition yet. We need to create a filesystem (both system-config-lvm and gparted did the following step automatically)::* <code>mkfs.ext4 /dev/vdb2 -L archive2</code>
# Run gparted again, look for the changes that happened after you created the partition/filesystem.
