How to format usb flash drive in ubuntu.







Instructions

  1. Plug your flash drive into an empty USB port, then back up any data on the drive. Open the main menu, move your cursor over "Accessories," then click on "Terminal." At the terminal prompt type "sudo apt-get install gparted" (without quotes) then hit the "Enter" key on your keyboard.
  2. Enter your Ubuntu administrator password when prompted, then hit the "Enter" key again. This will download and install GParted which is an open source drive partitioning program.
  3. Go to the Ubuntu main menu after the installation is complete, move your cursor over "System," then "Administration," then click on "Partition Editor." Enter your administrator password when prompted, then click "OK."
  4. Click on "GParted" in the toolbar then hover over "Devices" and select your USB flash drive from the list (dev/sdb1 for example). Right-click on the device in the main GParted window, then click "Unmount." It may take a few minutes for the device to be unmounted.
  5. Right-click on the device again (after it is umnounted) then hover over "Format to." Select the desired file system type (RiserFS, linux-swap, Ext 2/3, or FAT16/32 for example), then click "Apply" in the toolbar. Depending on the size of the flash drive, it will take 3 to 4 minutes or so for GParted to complete the process.
  6. Close GParted after the flash drive is formatted. To mount your USB flash drive, unplug it and then plug it back in. The drive is now ready to store data in the file format you selected.

ALERT








A
: Attention
L : Life
E : Emergency
R
: Rush up

T : Think about it...!

Friday, 18-Dec-2009, about 9:00 am, in Rimpa Plaza, Karachi, Pakistan.....

There was load shedding our laptops bettry became low so we decide to take tea from outside. But when we came out from our office & go towards stairs some peoples were ran upstairs & said there is fire on 6th floor in a store-room exactly next over our office room. Some of our friends immediately rush up out from the plaza & the other were return to office & shift our laptops to our head office. In th mean time all channels team, police, rescue, ambulance, fire brigade reached & try to stop the fire as soon as possible. Thanks to Allah no one was injered except the 6th floor & the fire became cool after a great efforts. Then after Jumma pray we deside to go back to our home.


Conclusion:
I think that was happened only due to poor security & safty precautions which should be taken by the Plaza owner.
And also office owners must have to choose those place to setup their business where all facilities are available like transport should available for (all) employees & similarly other facilities to face such accidents like on Friday.

Opinion:
In Karachi i think the best location to setup once business is from NIPA to Hassan Square because NIPA is the center to all routs.


Excuse:
There may be some English mistakes so please forgive it.

Thanks.
