<para>
Once the partition is created, we have to create a new file system on
that partition. To create an ext2 file system, the mke2fs command is the
correct choice. To create a reiser file system, the mkreiserfs command

command and the file system is created. If the partition is hda11
and ext2 is to be created, the user would run:
