an empty basic disk that relies on the MBR partition style.
create partition efi [size=N] [offset=N] [noerr] Creates an EFI partition on a GPT
disk. You must have an Itanium computer to use this feature. The utility gives the new partition
the focus once the system creates it. The size argument defines the size of the partition in megabytes.
The utility uses all of the free space on the disk when you don??™t specify this option. The
offset argument defines the byte offset of the new partition. If you don??™t specify an offset, the
utility creates the partition at the beginning of the first disk extant that??™s large enough to hold it.
create partition extended [size=N] [offset=N] [noerr] Creates an extended partition
on the current drive. The utility gives the new partition the focus once the system creates it.
A disk can only have one extended partition. You must create an extended partition before you
can create logical drives.
