Welcome to fdisk (util-linux 2.32.1).

Changes will remain in memory only, until you decide to write them.
Be careful before using the write command.

Device does not contain a recognized partition table.

Created a new DOS disklabel with disk identifier 0xf1f81007.

Command (m for help): m

Help:

DOS (MBR)
a toggle a bootable flag
b edit nested BSD disklabel
c toggle the dos compatibility flag

Generic
d delete a partition
F list free unpartitioned space
l list known partition types
n add a new partition
p print the partition table
t change a partition type
v verify the partition table
i print information about a partition

Misc
m print this menu
u change display/entry units
x extra functionality (experts only)

Script
I load disk layout from sfdisk script file
O dump disk layout to sfdisk script file

Save & Exit

w write table to disk and exit
q quit without saving changes

Mount Point - By default we can not access the hdd directly in linux system. For
this case we have to create a folder and
link it to the partion. This process is called mounting .
The Folder is called the mount point of the hdd.
