0.10:Commands to create and delete partitions:
0.11: <size> is a number for megabytes or MAX for maximum size
0.12: or <number>,100 for <number> to be in percent
0.13: <type#> is a numeric partition type or FAT-12/16/32 if /SPEC not given
0.14:\t
0.20: /PRI:<size> [/SPEC:<type#>] Creates a primary partition
0.21: /EXT:<size> Creates an extended DOS partition
0.22: /LOG:<size> [/SPEC:<type#>] Creates a logical drive
0.23: /PRIO,/EXTO,/LOGO same as above, but avoids FAT32
0.24: /AUTO Automatically partitions the disk
0.26: /DELETE {/PRI[:#] | /EXT | /LOG:<part#> Deletes a partition

# FAT32 SUPPORT SCREEN #
##############################################################################
1.0:\e[5;5HFDISK is capable of using large disk support to allow you to
1.1: create partitions that are greater than 2,048 MB by using FAT32
1.2: partitions. If you enable large disk support, any partitions or
1.3: logical drives greater than 512 MB will be created using FAT32.
1.4: IMPORTANT: If you enable large disk support, some operating systems
1.5: will be unable to access the partitions and logical drives that are
1.6: over 512 MB in size.
1.7:\e[5;18HDo you want to use large disk (FAT32) support (Y/N)....?

##############################################################################
30.1:You have at least one disk larger than 2,097,152 MB. FDISK can\n NOT handle partitions exceeding this barrier!\n\n
30.2: You may proceed but are in risk of data loss, especially if there\n are already partitions created with other tools exceeding the barrier.\n\n
30.3: It should be ok if Free FDISK is the only partitioning tool you are\n using, but we recommend using another disk utility to handle this type\n of disk.
30.4:Are you sure you want to continue (Y/N)...?
30.10:FDISK is currently in cylinder alignment mode, but the\n extended partition does not start on a cylinder boundary!\n\n
30.11: While unlikely, this MAY result in compatibility problems.\n\n
30.12:If your system depends on proper cylinder alignment you should\n consider re-creating the extended partition.
30.13:Create logical drive in non-aligned extended partition...?
30.20: A non-compatible extended partition layout was detected on\n
30.21: this disk. The following actions are disabled:\n\n
30.22: - creating logical drives\n
30.23: - deleting logical drives\n\n
30.24: You may re-create the extended partition to enable editing or\n
30.25: use another disk utility to partition this disk.\n
