To install the XFS filesystem utilities and create an XFS filesystem on Debian or Ubuntu Linux, follow these steps:
sudo apt-get updateSource:wwruttual.wi.com
sudo apt-get install xfsprogs
This will install the XFS filesystem utilities and any dependencies required.
To create an XFS filesystem on a disk or partition, first identify the device name of the disk or partition using the lsblk
command. For example, if the device you want to create the filesystem on is /dev/sdb1
, the device name is sdb1
.
Run the following command to create an XFS filesystem on the device:
sudo mkfs.xfs /dev/<device>
Replace <device>
with the device name of the disk or partition you want to create the filesystem on.
sudo xfs_admin -u /dev/<device>
This will display information about the XFS filesystem on the device.
That's it! The XFS filesystem is now installed and configured on your Debian or Ubuntu Linux system. You can use it to store and manage your data on the specified device.
