3diskpart is the command line Windows partitioning system... Linux has various terminal tools such as `fdisk`, `parted`. `GParted` is a graphical interface for `parted`. As the OP has asked about `diskpart` it may be best to provide command line answers for Linux...? – Kinnectus Dec 17 '15 at 08:49

1Sounds like parted ... I thought one-line, or here one-word, answers were frowned upon though... ah well, an answer's an answer – Xen2050 Dec 17 '15 at 12:02

You probably want to use parted - or it's cooler more fun GUI gparted (I prefer gparted if given a choice).
Here's links to info on using parted:
- gnu.org Parted User's Manual - 2. Using Parted
- How to Create Partition on Linux for >2TB Size using Parted GPT
Or
- Wikihow How to Use Gparted - with plenty of photos. If you're already running a linux with gparted installed (Ubuntu, Mint, etc) skip the first 2 steps
