Filesystems are created, i.e., initialized, with the mkfs command. There is actually a separate program for each filesystem type. mkfs is just a front end that runs the appropriate program depending on the desired filesystem type. The type is selected with the -t fstype option.
The programs called by mkfs have slightly different command line interfaces. The common and most important options are summarized below; see the manual pages for more.
To create an ext2 filesystem on a floppy, one would give the following commands:
- -t fstype
- Select the type of the filesystem.
- -c
- Search for bad blocks and initialize the bad block list accordingly.
- -l filename
- Read the initial bad block list from the file filename.
First, the floppy was formatted (the -n option prevents validation, i.e., bad block checking). Then bad blocks were searched with badblocks , with the output redirected to a file, bad-blocks. Finally, the filesystem was created, with the bad block list initialized by whatever badblocks found.$
fdformat -n /dev/fd0H1440
Double-sided, 80 tracks, 18 sec/track. Total capacity 1440 kB.

The -c option could have been used with mkfs instead of badblocks and a separate file. The example below does that.
The -c is more convenient than a separate use of badblocks , but badblocks is necessary for checking after the filesystem has been created.$
mkfs -t ext2 -c /dev/fd0H1440
mke2fs 0.5a, 5-Apr-94 for EXT2 FS 0.5, 94/03/10

The process to prepare filesystems on hard disks or partitions is the same as for floppies, except that the formatting isn't needed.
