<warning>
<para>This tool<footnote>
<para>You can start this tool from the command line, by typing <emphasis
role="bold">drakdisk</emphasis> or <emphasis
role="bold">diskdrake</emphasis> as root.</para>
</footnote> is very powerful, a tiny
error or a cat jumping on your keyboard can lead to losing all data on a
partition or even to erasing the entire hard disk. For that reason, you'll
see the screen above on top of the tool screen. Click on
<emphasis>Exit</emphasis> if you're not sure you want to continue.</para>
</warning>
<para>If you have more than one hard disk, you can switch to the hard disk you
want to work on by selecting the correct tab (sda, sdb, sdc etc).</para>

<imagedata revision="1" align="center" xml:id="drakdisk-im1" fileref="drakdisk.png" format="PNG"/>

<para>You can choose from many actions to adjust your hard disk to your
preferences. Wiping an entire hard disk, splitting or merging partitions,
resizing them or changing the filesystem, formatting or viewing what is in a
partition: it is all possible. The <emphasis><guibutton>Clear
all</guibutton></emphasis> button at the bottom is to erase the complete
disk, the other buttons become visible on the right after you click on a
partition.</para>
<para>If the selected partition is mounted, like in the example below, you cannot
choose to resize, format or delete it. To be able to do that the partition
must be unmounted first.</para>
<para>It is only possible to resize a partition on its right side</para>
<para>To change a partition type (change ext3 to ext4 for example) you have to
delete the partition and then re-create it with the new type. The button
<guibutton role="bold">Create</guibutton> appears when a disk empty part is
selected</para>
<para>You can choose a mount point that doesn't exist, it will be created.</para>

<para>Selecting <emphasis><guibutton>Toggle to expert mode</guibutton></emphasis>
gives some extra available actions, like labelling the partition, as can be
seen in the screenshot below.</para>
