Type 1 to make this the first partition and then press enter. Type p to make this partition primary and press enter. Next we need to create the new partition. Type d to proceed to delete another partition (fdisk should automatically select the second partition)ī. Type 1 to select the 1st partition and press enter. Type d to proceed to delete a partition. Type fdisk /dev/sdx (replacing x with your drive letter). 
Type fdisk -l and note your USB drive letter. First we need to delete the old partitions that remain on the USB key. These are the steps to perform a low-level formatĪ. So I decided to perform Low-level format to my USB drive via Linux (I am using Fedora) OMG, what to do now? I asked the help from Windows’s Disk management system and nope. img file through a sotware (I forgot the name) it warned me about “Disk corruption” I just make it pass as I was very keen to use Google’s Chrome OS.Īfter three days, today I pluged the USB drive in my friend’s computer to get some documents and I noticed, that warning was correct and my USB drive is totally corrupted as Chrome OS has splitted my USB drive and has written Kernal and other etc partitions into it, you can see them in the above image also. Recently I have used Chrome OS vanilla via USB drive. 
If you are here to know about low-level formatting, please visit. Update – I was completely wrong on using the word “Low-level format” and demonstrating it using fdisk.
