Create HFS+ and FAT32 partitions on one external drive.
In step 2), the output I get from "diskutil list /dev/disk1" is nothing like your example. I just ignored it and continued. OOOPS !!! you should type "diskutil disk1", not "diskutil list /dev/disk1" In step 6), can you be specific about what commands you used to create the DOS partition table? Since I'm not familiar with fdisk, I used "diskutil partitionDisk" with the MBRFormat argument. Is this acceptable?
You cannot use "diskutil partitionDisk" because it formats every partition and destroy the partition table you made in step 2). You have to use fdisk.
In step 10), I can't seem to write back to the partition table: dd: /dev/rdisk1: Invalid argument 0+1 records in 0+0 records out 0 bytes transferred in 0.002190 secs (0 bytes/sec) It works fine, maybe a typing error or you forgot to unmount the disk. Good Luck ! |
