Message-ID: <55E3B640.2060606@gmail.com> (raw)
I have a question about (or a enhancement request) running fdisk. When
asking to list known partition types, I get about 70 lines of output.
Generally that would not be a problem, but I was running in a Debian
install/rescue iso that uses busybox in a 25 line terminal. I do not
have a way to scroll up and thus cannot see the first 40 or so partition
types.
Is there a way to use a pager for this? In this situation 'more' is
available but 'less' is not. Otherwise I think an automatic pause every
20 lines or so would be appropriate to build into the partition type
listing.
