Locate your pen drive by observing its size. The names may be different. In my case, as my pen
drive is located on 1st place so it is called as disk 1. Change the number in the command according
to your pen drive.

5: Select the pen drive by executing the ‘select disk 1’ command.

This will tell you that your pen drive has been selected.

6: Now clean your drive by running the ‘clean’ command.

This will tell that the selected disk has been cleaned.

7: To create the primary partition, type ‘create partition primary’ command. Then select the
primary partition by ‘select partition 1’.
