The next dialog box presents a list of partitions to format (see Figure 53). All newly created partitions should be formatted. In addition, any existing partitions that contain old data you no longer need should be formatted. However, partitions such as /home or /usr/local must not be formatted if they contain data you wish to keep. Select each partition to format and press [Space]. If you wish to check for bad blocks while formatting each filesystem, select Check for bad blocks during format. Select Ok, and press [Space].
