# Instead of adding it to the volume group for use with LVM we're going to create a traditional partition on it, and a filesystem on that partition:
## Run gparted on fedora1 and select the new drive, if you added it correctly it should be /dev/vdb.
## Create a new partition using up all the space (approx. 2GB) with an ext4 filesystem, with the lable label '''archive'''. Don't call it lv_archive since it's not a logical volume.
## Gparted may not allow you to create a partition because the drive has not been initialized. Create a partition table as the tool tells you to do, then create the partition.
## When you're ready to apply the changes - click the "Apply all operations" button.
