Formatting a drive on Linux involves setting a partitioning scheme, creating a new partition, and formatting it using commands like 'mkfs' for specific file types.
For UEFI machines, you should use the GPT partition scheme. The command-line approach provides greater control and flexibility over drive management and formatting.
Using command line tools like 'fdisk' for partitioning and 'mkfs' for formatting gives users a clear understanding of the underlying processes in managing drives on Linux.
Even individuals familiar with GUIs can benefit from command line options when formatting drives, as it enhances their command over system functionalities.
