你可以使用一個叫做partprobe的工具。它包含在parted的rpm軟件包中。在Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3上他的版本是parted-1.6。 partprobe 是一個可以修改kernel中分區(qū)表的工具。可以使kernel重新讀取分區(qū)表。如下命令可以查看你的系統(tǒng)是否安裝了parted軟件包
在Linux中使用fdisk命令進行分區(qū)時，有時會遇到“WARNING: Re-reading the partition table failed with error 16: Device or resource busy.The kernel still uses the old table.The new table will be used at the next reboot.”這種告警信息。如下所示
復制代碼
代碼如下:
[root@localhost ~]# fdisk /dev/sde
The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 18928. There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024, and could in certain setups cause problems with: 1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO) 2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)

partprobe - inform the OS of partition table changes
DESCRIPTION This manual page documents briefly the partprobe command.
partprobe is a program that informs the operating system kernel of partition table changes, by requesting that the operating system re-read the partition table.
