WARNING: you are attempting to use parted to operate on (mkfs) a file
system.
parted's file system manipulation code is not as robust as what you'll find
in
dedicated, file-system-specific packages like e2fsprogs.  We recommend
you use parted only to manipulate partition tables, whenever possible.
Support for performing most operations on most types of file systems
will be removed in an upcoming release.
Warning: The existing file system will be destroyed and all data on the
partition will be lost. Do you
want to continue?
parted: invalid token: 1
Yes/No? Y
