How to Format my Second HDD
#1
My computer has two HDDs. The first is a Linux drive with LL5.4, with separate "/" and "/home" partitions and a swap space.
The second, "dev/sdb," is a dos disk I don't have access to (or don't know how to access).


I want to use that second one to store Timeshift restore points and an iso of my existing system (made with Systemback). But I can't write to the drive until it is formatted from dos to ext4 or something Linux can use.


How can I access and format that second hard drive?


Sorry for the "rookie question," but I'm stumped.
