REPARTITION(8) System Manager's Manual REPARTITION(8)
NAME
repartition - load a partition table
SYNOPSIS
repartition device [partition-file]
DESCRIPTION
Repartition uploads a new partition table for the partitions of device. The table is obtained from the first sector of partition-file if
given, device otherwise. Device may refer to the whole drive or a primary partition, depending on whether you want to upload a partition
or a subpartition table. The partitions will be truncated to fit within the enclosing device like the disk driver does, unless the numbers
are coming from partition-file.
EXAMPLES
repartition /dev/hd0
repartition /dev/hd4 /etc/hd4.table
Reload the partition table of drive 0 setting /dev/hd[1-4], and the subpartition table of /dev/hd4 setting /dev/hd4[a-d] using a file. The
latter may be useful if you need more than the 4 subpartitions a single Minix partition gives you.
DIAGNOSTICS
The new table is printed on standard output.
FILES
/dev/hd[0-9]
SEE ALSO
hd(4), part(8).
BUGS
The disk must be in use for the changes to stick. The partition table of an idle disk will be reloaded on the first open.
