'''fdisk''' is a [[command-line utility]] for [[disk partitioning]]. It has been part of [[DOS]], [[Digital Research|DR]] [[FlexOS]], [[IBM]] [[OS/2]], and early versions of [[Microsoft Windows]], as well as certain ports of [[FreeBSD]],{{r|f}} [[NetBSD]],{{r|n}} [[OpenBSD]],{{r|o}} [[DragonFly BSD]]{{r|d}} and [[macOS]]{{r|x}} for compatibility reasons. [[Windows 2000]] and its successors have replaced fdisk with a more advanced tool called [[diskpart]].
