	Linux From Scratch 12.2/chapter02_creatingfilesystem — Spanish	Creating a File System on the Partition
	Linux From Scratch 12.2/chapter02_creatingfilesystem — Chinese (Simplified Han script)	A partition is just a range of sectors on a disk drive, delimited by boundaries set in a partition table. Before the operating system can use a partition to store any files, the partition must be formatted to contain a file system, typically consisting of a label, directory blocks, data blocks, and an indexing scheme to locate a particular file on demand. The file system also helps the OS keep track of free space on the partition, reserve the needed sectors when a new file is created or an existing file is extended, and recycle the free data segments created when files are deleted. It may also provide support for data redundancy, and for error recovery.

	Linux From Scratch 12.2/chapter02_creatingfilesystem — Spanish	LFS can use any file system recognized by the Linux kernel, but the most common types are ext3 and ext4. The choice of the right file system can be complex; it depends on the characteristics of the files and the size of the partition. For example:
	Linux From Scratch 12.2/chapter02_creatingfilesystem — Spanish	ext2
	Linux From Scratch 12.2/chapter02_creatingfilesystem — Spanish	is suitable for small partitions that are updated infrequently such as /boot.
	Linux From Scratch 12.2/chapter02_creatingfilesystem — Spanish	ext3
	Linux From Scratch 12.2/chapter02_creatingfilesystem — Spanish	is an upgrade to ext2 that includes a journal to help recover the partition's status in the case of an unclean shutdown. It is commonly used as a general purpose file system.
	Linux From Scratch 12.2/chapter02_creatingfilesystem — Spanish	ext4
	Linux From Scratch 12.2/chapter02_creatingfilesystem — Spanish	is the latest version of the ext family of file systems. It provides several new capabilities including nano-second timestamps, creation and use of very large files (up to 16 TB), and speed improvements.
	Linux From Scratch 12.2/chapter02_creatingfilesystem — Spanish	Other file systems, including FAT32, NTFS, JFS, and XFS are useful for specialized purposes. More information about these file systems, and many others, can be found at <ulink url="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_file_systems"/>.
	Linux From Scratch 12.2/chapter02_creatingfilesystem — Spanish	LFS assumes that the root file system (/) is of type ext4. To create an <systemitem class="filesystem">ext4</systemitem> file system on the LFS partition, issue the following command:
	Linux From Scratch 12.2/chapter02_creatingfilesystem — Spanish	<userinput>mkfs -v -t ext4 /dev/<replaceable>&lt;xxx&gt;</replaceable></userinput>
	Linux From Scratch 12.2/chapter02_creatingfilesystem — Spanish	Replace <replaceable>&lt;xxx&gt;</replaceable> with the name of the LFS partition.
	Linux From Scratch 12.2/chapter02_creatingfilesystem — Spanish	If you are using an existing <systemitem class="filesystem">swap </systemitem> partition, there is no need to format it. If a new <systemitem class="filesystem"> swap</systemitem> partition was created, it will need to be initialized with this command:
	Linux From Scratch 12.2/chapter02_creatingfilesystem — Spanish	<userinput>mkswap /dev/<replaceable>&lt;yyy&gt;</replaceable></userinput>
	Linux From Scratch 12.2/chapter02_creatingfilesystem — Spanish	Replace <replaceable>&lt;yyy&gt;</replaceable> with the name of the <systemitem class="filesystem">swap</systemitem> partition.
