In the second case, sfdisk will require the Enter key be pressed, instead of blank lines, to sfdisk's prompts for any unused partitions. Keep pressing the Enter key until sfdisk has finished prompting for the partitions, then you will need to enter "y" to confirm you want to actually write the changes to the card.''

This example will create two partitions in a 1GB flash card: the first one is FAT16 (that's what number 6 means), and the second one is the default Linux native partition (83). If you are using a card larger than 2GB, use "c" (FAT32 LBA) instead of "6".  The size of the first one is almost 480MB (that's the meaning of the 15000), and the second one is sized till the end of the card (that's what ,, means). Partitions three and four are empty.

The arguments for [http://linux.die.net/man/8/sfdisk sfdisk] are:
+
-
* The device node to use for the partition
+
-
* The start cylinder on the card
+
-
* The end cylinder on the card (leave blank to have the partition go to the end of the disk)
+
-
* The filesystem type ([http://www.win.tue.nl/~aeb/partitions/partition_types-1.html complete list])
+

A cylinder is a 32KB block on a flash card, so 15,000 cylinders equates to 480,000KB (approx. 480MB).
