*OS:* Fedora | *Component:* parted-3.4-2.fc34.x86_64 *parted mode: *interactive *Target device:* 256 MiB USB-storage *Starting state:* existence alone of partition table; then no partition. Hello. - The creation of partition table and naming of partition when supported by selected partition table, succeed. - The creation of filesystem fails. # parted /dev/sdc (...) (parted) mkpart primary ext4 0% 100% (parted) quit Information: You may need to update /etc/fstab. *Note:* Unknown instruction in regards to mention "*You may need to update /etc/fstab*". # parted /dev/sdc (parted) print Model: Kingston DataTraveler 2.0 (scsi) Disk /dev/sdc: 255MB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: msdos Disk Flags: Number Start EndSize Type File system Flags 1 1049kB 255MB 254MB primary lba (parted) quit For example, here is a Gparted v.1.3.1 interpretation: "Unable to detect file system! Possible reasons are: - The file system is damaged - The file system is unknown to GParted - There is no file system available (unformatted) - The device entry /dev/sdc1 is missing"
