How to find unallocated partition.
HI, I'm trying to find the unallocated space in console mode from my hard disk. I tried " df-hk and fdisk" commands, but either of the commands are not listing out the unallocated space. It's just listing the existing partition. please let me know how to list that and partition that in text mode.

Try cfdisk.

HI bartus, Thank you for replying.

cfdisk is showing FATA Error, is there any other option.

What, exactly, did you do and what, exactly did it show? Show it word for word, letter for letter, keystroke for keystroke.
