NAME

atari-fdisk - Atari partition editor

SYNOPSIS

atari-fdisk  [ -f ] [ -l ] [ -r ] [ -s ] [ -v ] [ -x ] [ -O file ] [ -I
file ] device

DESCRIPTION

atari-fdisk is an editor for Atari partition tables. It has an interactive menu for most actions. It operates on the disk associated with device.

OPTIONS

-f Force operation on disks from which partitions seem to be
mounted. (This is generally no good idea!)
-l List partition tables of all disks. If this flag is given,
interactive mode isn't entered.
-r Open the disk device in read-only mode. You can view the parti
tion table then, but cannot write back a modified table to disk.
-s Only print the size (in blocks) of the partition device. Note
that device should be a single partition device (e.g. /dev/sda1), not a whole-disk device (e.g. /dev/sda), for this.
-v Show version of the program.
-x Enter expert mode immediately. Expert mode can also be switched
on by a menu item.
-O file
Save the partition tables of device to a file file. This file can later be used to restore all the partition information with the -I option.
-I file
Read a partition table from file (that has been created with -O) and write it back to disk.
