mkfs.ext2

`mkfs.ext2` is a command used in Linux systems to create or format a storage device, such as a hard drive or USB stick, with the ext2 file system. A file system organizes data on the device, allowing the operating system to store, find, and manage files efficiently. Running this command prepares the device for use by setting up this structure, making it ready to store files securely and systematically. It’s typically used by system administrators or advanced users when setting up or reorganizing storage devices for Linux environments.
