How to Format a Fedora NTFS Thumb Drive Fedora is a free, open-source Linux operating system backed by Red Hat. Fedora includes a graphical desktop environment by default, in addition to command line tools and server software. One of the graphical tools is named Disk Utility, and includes options for formatting removable and internal disks, creating partitions and performing other diagnostics. USB thumb drives are removable disks, and like other computer storage media, must be formatted with a file system. NTFS is Windows' native file system, but Fedora supports reading from, writing to and formatting NTFS file systems. Instructions 1 Insert the USB thumb drive into your computer's USB slot. 2 Right-click the icon of the thumb drive on your desktop and click "Eject." Fedora automatically mounts the thumb drive when you insert if; you have to eject it so you can modify its file system. 3.Open the Disk Utility by clicking "Applications," "System Tools" and "Disk Utility." 4 Select your thumb drive by clicking its name under "Peripheral Devices" at the left side of the DIsk Utility window, for example, "Generic Flash Disk." 5 Click "Format Drive" at the right side of the Disk Utility window. 6 Use the default formatting option by clicking "Format" in the window that appears. 7 Confirm the formatting operation by clicking "Format" again when prompted. 8 Click "Create Partition" at the bottom of the Disk Utility window. 9 Click the drop-down box to the right of "Type" and click "NTFS." 10 Name the partition by typing a name into the "Name" box. 11 Create the NTFS partition by clicking "Create."
