Topic: Usb

Hoi

I saw the button USB and "mount an USB Flash Drive. In the next screen I have to fill in something but what? Is it possible to remove a hidden partition on a flash drive with GParted?

Thanks
PeeZet

Re: Usb

The command "mount an USB Flash Drive" is rather for store screenshot pictures.
You choose the device to partition from the device menu at the right of the GParted window.
You can't resize or delete a mounted partition, you need to unmount it first.
Be careful on these hidden partitions, they sometimes contain tools useful in mswindows.

*** It is highly recommended to backup any important files before doing resize/move operations. ***
