[root@*****~]# fdisk /dev/sda
The number of cylinders for this disk is set to39162.
There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than1024,
and could in certain setups cause problemswith:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions ofLILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from otherOSs
(e.g., DOS FDISK,OS/2 FDISK) #输入n,新建分区
Command (m for help):n #输入P,主分区
Command action

p primary partition(1-4) p #目前是sda第三个分区输入3
Partition number (1-4): 3 #敲回车,默认就行了(如果要分多个分区,这儿就制定数值)
