尝试格式化新分区失败，原因是被分区所在设备有分区被挂载，并且需要内核重新读取新的分区表：
[root@localhost ~]# mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb2
mke2fs 1.41.12 (17-May-2010)
Could not stat /dev/sdb2 --- No such file or directory
The device apparently does not exist; did you specify it correctly?
[root@localhost ~]# partprobe /dev/sdb
Warning: WARNING: the kernel failed to re-read the partition table on /dev/sdb (Device or resource busy). As a result, it may not reflect all of your changes until after reboot.
[root@localhost ~]# umount /data1
[root@localhost ~]# mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb2
mke2fs 1.41.12 (17-May-2010)
Could not stat /dev/sdb2 --- No such file or directory
The device apparently does not exist; did you specify it correctly?
不重启系统，让内核立即读取新的分区表，识别新分区：
[root@localhost ~]# partprobe /dev/sdb
格式化文件系统：
[root@localhost ~]# mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb2

创建挂载目录：
[root@localhost ~]# mkdir /data2
将sdb2挂载至/data2目录：
[root@localhost ~]# mount /dev/sdb2 /data2/
[root@localhost ~]# cd /
创建测试文件：
[root@localhost /]# ls -l > /data2/test.txt

卸载sdb2文件系统：
[root@localhost /]#umount /dev/sdb2
删除分区：
fdisk -cu /dev/sdb 命令执行后有删除分区的选项
格式化swap分区：
mkswap命令
