Change that to sdc. You want to partition the drive, not the partition.Originally Posted by ironclaw
Fdisk Query..
Hi Folks,
Just got a 120GB USB hard drive that I'm trying to format to use with BT3.
umount /dev/sdc1
fdisk /dev/sdc1
(Go through delete, make and change partition types etc)
Then when I go to write (w) it comes back with: "... error 22: Invalid Arguement"
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Regards,
ironclaw

Of course, if you really wanted to have some fun, go to Wal-Mart late at night and ask the greeter if they could help you find trashbags, roll of carpet, rope, quicklime, clorox and a shovel. See if they give you any strange looks. --Streaker69

The drive is listed as /dev/sdc1 though in the fdisk -l out put. I'm trying to format an SD card (sdc1) now, and it won't work either. Hmm...
Bingo.. Drop the "1"
Thanks folks.
Double Doh
