Linux Administration Bootcamp: Go from Beginner to Advanced - Disk Management - Part 2 - Creating Partitions with the fd

The video tutorial demonstrates how to use the fdisk utility to create GPT and MBR partition tables on a Linux server. It begins by showing how to list available disks and identifies three disks on the server. The tutorial then guides through creating three primary MBR partitions on Dev SDB, including a swap partition, and a single GPT partition on Dev SDC. The process involves using fdisk commands to set partition types and sizes, and concludes with verifying the partition tables.
