(also tried mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdfx and mke2fs -t ext4 /dev/sdfx)
and have the following:
this leaves me with 2 questions:
-1.why both partitions appear as fat with fdisk while they appear (correctly) as ext4 with blkid?
-2.as you can see I have got only 55Mega on the second partition:
how to concatenate both partitions into one?
I tried to dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdf2 and reformat the sdf1 (hoping the 2nd operation would have used the space left by the 1st operation), in vain. I have tried to reformat sdf1 in vfat (mkfs.vfat) and ext4.
Thank you very much for your help folks !

Hi,
Not entirely sure if this is the right thread.
Essentially, fdisk -l shows that /dev/sda is a drive (750 GB), with 1 partition at /dev/sda1 with system type "Linux".
I'm pretty nooby at working with drives, but I'm pretty sure that the output of:
mount /dev/sda1 /media/int

fdformat
FDFORMAT(8) Linux Programmer's Manual FDFORMAT(8)NAME
fdformat - Low-level formats a floppy disk
SYNOPSIS
fdformat [-n] device
DESCRIPTION
fdformat does a low level format on a floppy disk. device is usually one of the following (for floppy devices, the major = 2, and the
minor is shown for informational purposes only):
/dev/fd0d360 (minor = 4)
/dev/fd0h1200 (minor = 8)
/dev/fd0D360 (minor = 12)
/dev/fd0H360 (minor = 12)
/dev/fd0D720 (minor = 16)
/dev/fd0H720 (minor = 16)
/dev/fd0h360 (minor = 20)
/dev/fd0h720 (minor = 24)
/dev/fd0H1440 (minor = 28)
/dev/fd1d360 (minor = 5)
/dev/fd1h1200 (minor = 9)
/dev/fd1D360 (minor = 13)
/dev/fd1H360 (minor = 13)
/dev/fd1D720 (minor = 17)
/dev/fd1H720 (minor = 17)
/dev/fd1h360 (minor = 21)
/dev/fd1h720 (minor = 25)
/dev/fd1H1440 (minor = 29)
The generic floppy devices, /dev/fd0 and /dev/fd1, will fail to work with fdformat when a non-standard format is being used, or if the for-
mat has not been autodetected earlier. In this case, use setfdprm(8) to load the disk parameters.
OPTIONS -n No verify. This option will disable the verification that is performed after the format.
