CIS 2550 – Lab Worksheet Topic 11: Designing a Scheme, Creating Partitions, Mounting File Systems Your Name: Date: Instructions : Complete the tasks described in this worksheet. Read the instructions carefully and submit evidence of your completed tasks (a screen shot is your evidence). Answer the questions below in the space provided. Showing Evidence of Completion: Your evidence of completion is a screen shot, as described in each exercise. Use the tool of your choice to take a screen shot of the required content. Screen shots should be pasted at the end of this docu - ment. Answering Questions: Your answers should be written in carefully edited college-level English, using complete sentences. Questions (8 points) Answer Using your class material and the Internet describe partitioning in your own words. (2 points) Partitioning is the process of dividing a large data set or system into smaller, more manageable parts or components. It entails dividing a large system or dataset into numerous more manageable and processable smaller, self-con- tained components. Using your class material describe the commands you would be using to create, format, and mount a partition . (2 points) The first step is to enter the Fdisk program by using the Fdisk command and the drive you wish to partition. Once in the program, press n to create a new parti- tion. Enter 2 appropriate answers when the program asks for specific details. Print the partition table again to make sure the partition was created, press W, then enter to write the changes to the partition table. Use the mkfs command to
Questions (8 points) Answer create a filesystem for the partition. After that make a new directory with the mkdir command. Use the mount command with the name of the newly created partition and directory to mount filesystem. To keep changes on reboot, make changes to the /etc/fstab file. Given the following describe how many physical hard disks are in your system, and how many partitions exist in total on all hard disks . (2 points) /dev/sda1 /dev/sda2 /dev/hda1 There are two hard disks in the system, sda and hda. Sda has two partitions and HAD has one for a total of three. You have a system with one hard disk that contains three pri- mary partition. Using your class material describe the following: (2 points) How many more physical partitions can you create? What type of partition should you create, as the fourth partition, if you need add three more partitions? There can be 1 more partition created on that disk. To make sure there isn’t a partition any remaining free space on the disk, the 4th partition should be an extended one.
Showing Evidence of Completion: Your evidence of completion is a screen shot, as described in each exercise. Use the tool of your choice to take a screen shot of the required content. Paste the screen shot into the table cell as indicated. Make your screen shot image small by clicking on it, then holding down the SHIFT key while dragging one of the corner nodes inward. If you’re using Windows try the Snipping Tool which lets you se- lect the area on the screen you want to capture. Unless noted all screenshots need a name and date stamp as such Use the command: echo “Your Name” && date this will generate two lines of output. Example: Put this before or after the requested output (NOT in a separate window and pic). If this is not done or visible in the output the submission will not be counted. Screen Pics (12 points) Using NETLAB Fedora Workstation 1. Submit one screen capture that contains both the syntax and result of what drives are available on the system . (3 points)
