107 \fB\fBCreate a partition\fR\fR
111 This option allows the user to create a new partition. The maximum number of
112 partitions is 4. The program will ask for the type of the partition (SOLARIS,
113 MS-DOS, UNIX, or other). It will then ask for the size of the partition as a
116 size of the partition in cylinders. If a \fBc\fR is not entered, the program
117 will determine the starting cylinder number where the partition will fit. In
