( Use Kali linux )
This task assumes that you have a thumb drive(smaller size is better). You will format this drive and create partitions as follows.
(a) Format (using any tool) the thumb drive and create a FAT file system ranging the whole drive.
Read the MBR of the thumb drive and check how many partitions are present and their sizes. Justify your answer with a screenshot.
Also, check the size of the partition via fdisk -l command as well as mmls command.
(b) Now create a second partition in the thumb drive by shrinking (or recreating) the above partition to half of its original size; build FAT file system also in the second partition.
Check the MBR of the thumb drive again and answer what differences do you observe? Explain why. Justify your answer with a screenshot.
Also, check the size of the partitions via fdisk -l command as well as mmls command.
