Subject: [PATCH 40/40] doc: Add information about quoting
|
|
|
|
Some shells (bash) will strip off the " so it needs to be
|
|
wrapped in '' to prevent it. eg.
|
|
|
|
parted -s ./disk.img mkpart '"EFI System Partition"' 1M 500M
|
|
|
|
(cherry picked from commit 8d5e7329a6984614ac9951f376bc77ea7f822ca3)
