<title>Creating a file system</title>
<?dbhtml filename="creatingfilesystem.html"?>
<para>See testing</para>
<!--
<para>Now that we have a blank partition, we can create a file system on it.
Most widely used in the Linux world is the second extended file system (ext2),
but with the high-capacity hard disks of today the so-called journaling file
systems are becoming increasingly popular. Here we will create an ext2 file
system, but build instructions for other file systems can be found at
<ulink url="&blfs-root;view/stable/postlfs/filesystems.html"/>.</para>
<para>To create an ext2 file system on the LFS partition run the following:</para>
<screen><userinput>mke2fs /dev/<replaceable>[xxx]</replaceable></userinput></screen>
<para>Replace <replaceable>[xxx]</replaceable> with the name of the LFS partition
(something like <filename>hda5</filename>).</para>
<para>If you created a (new) swap partition you need to initialize it as a
swap partition too (also known as formatting, like you did above with
<command>mke2fs</command>) by running:</para>
<screen><userinput>mkswap /dev/<replaceable>[yyy]</replaceable></userinput></screen>
<para>Replace <replaceable>[yyy]</replaceable> with the name of the swap
partition.</para>
