To view partition information about a device, or to otherwise gain information about partitions and devices on the machine, what command can you use? Present an example.
The fdisk command.

Example:
fdisk -l /dev/hdb - This command will show the partition table for the device /dev/hdb.

fdisk -l - this will simply list the partition tables for all devices on the system.
