df

or if you're using something really primative like a MS operating system, try
going to "my computer" and right clicking the drive and looking through the
properties tab.

 
 
 

1. Need to partition remaining free disk space after installed Linux

Bought a 60Gb hard drive and used 12Gb to install RedHat7.3.  Now that
everything is installed and went in my Linux the first time.  I want
to use the remaining free disk space by adding new partitions and
formating them afterwards.  I checked Osborne Linux 5th Edition book.
It talked about use fdisk and mkfs.  However, no example was given and
I could not figure out the exact syntax.

Could someone shed a light on this subject and offer an exact syntax
for this task?

Existing partitions on this drive:
                   Device          Start    End
FAT(Win98) 5Gb    /dev/hdf1            1    638
/boot      100Mb  /dev/hdf2          639    651
/usr       6Gb    /dev/hdf3          652   1416
Win Ext'd (LBA)   /dev/hdf4         1417   7476
/var       2Gb    /dev/hdf5         1417   1671
/home      2Gb    /dev/hdf6         1672   1926        
/          2Gb    /dev/hdf7         1927   2181
swap       400Mb  /dev/hdf8         2182   2232

I need to add /dev/hdf9 for 20Gb as /data.

Thank you very much in advance!
