That only tells you about filesystems on the disk which isn't necessarily what
she wants.
echo p | fdisk /dev/hdb
is a little messy, but seems to do the trick. I'm not sure whether fdisk
tells you about unused space, though.
grep hdb /var/log/messages|more
is better. It tells you what the disk told the OS when it booted.
