How to format any flash disk in kali linux
Hello Guys TODAY am going to show how to format any Flash disk in kali linux.
follow the following steps careful, and remember everything will be deleted Remember to do BACKUP.
Step 1 – Insert USB and Identify Volume
Insert USB drive into your system and identify your USB drive correctly. This is the step you need to take care, because you may format the wrong disk if not correctly identify your disk.
root@Japh:/media/root/UNTITLED# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev 1.9G 0 1.9G 0% /dev
tmpfs 385M 6.6M 379M 2% /run
/dev/mapper/Japh--vg-root 142G 46G 90G 34% /
tmpfs 1.9G 25M 1.9G 2% /dev/shm
tmpfs 5.0M 0 5.0M 0% /run/lock
tmpfs 1.9G 0 1.9G 0% /sys/fs/cgroup
/dev/sda1 236M 54M 171M 24% /boot
tmpfs 385M 12K 385M 1% /run/user/135
tmpfs 385M 32K 385M 1% /run/user/0
/dev/sdb1 30G 27G 2.9G 91% /media/root/UNTITLED
Step 2 – Format USB Drive in Linux
Whenever we attach a USB drive in Ubuntu, it automatically mounted to the system. We can not format any disk on Linux systems which are already mounted. So first un-mount this USB drive using the following command.
[sudo umount /dev/sdb1]
Now use one of the following commands as per file system you want. To format a USB drive, most of the users prefer VFAT and NTFS file systems because they can be easily used on Windows operating system.
Format with vFat FileSystem
[sudo mkfs.vfat /dev/sdb1]
Format with NTFS FileSystem
[sudo mkfs.ntfs /dev/sdb1]
Format with EXT4 FileSystem
[sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1]
Similarly, you can format USB Flash drive with any required file system.
