Creates a primary partition on the basic disk with focus. Syntax: CREATE PARTITION PRIMARY SIZE= OFFSET= ID={ | } ALIGN= ...

    Creates a primary partition on the basic disk with focus.

Syntax:  CREATE PARTITION PRIMARY [SIZE=] [OFFSET=] [ID={ | }]
            [ALIGN=] [NOERR]

    SIZE=    The size of the partition in megabytes (MB). If no size is
                given, the partition continues until there is no more
                unallocated space in the current region.

    OFFSET=  The offset, in kilobytes (KB), at which the partition is created.
                If no offset is given, the partition is placed in the first disk
                extent that is large enough to hold it.
                
    ID={ | }

                Specifies the partition type.

                Intended for Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) use only.

                For master boot record (MBR) disks, you can specify a partition
                type byte, in hexadecimal form, for the partition. If this
                parameter is not specified for an MBR disk, the command creates
                a partition of type 0x06 (specifies no file system is installed).
                
                    LDM data partition:
                        0x42
                        
                    Recovery partition:
                        0x27
                        
                    Recognized OEM Ids:
                        0x12
                        0x84
                        0xDE
                        0xFE
                        0xA0
                        
                For GUID partition table (GPT) disks you can specify a
                partition type GUID for the partition you want to create.
                Recognized GUIDs include:

                    EFI System partition:
                        c12a7328-f81f-11d2-ba4b-00a0c93ec93b

                    Microsoft Reserved partition:
                        e3c9e316-0b5c-4db8-817d-f92df00215ae

                    Basic data partition:
                        ebd0a0a2-b9e5-4433-87c0-68b6b72699c7

                    LDM Metadata partition on a dynamic disk:
                        5808c8aa-7e8f-42e0-85d2-e1e90434cfb3

                    LDM Data partition on a dynamic disk:
                        af9b60a0-1431-4f62-bc68-3311714a69ad

                    Recovery partition:
                        de94bba4-06d1-4d40-a16a-bfd50179d6ac

                If this parameter is not specified for a GPT disk, the command
                creates a basic data partition.

                Any partition type byte or GUID can be specified with this
                parameter. DiskPart does not check the partition type for
                validity except to ensure that it is a byte in hexadecimal form
                or a GUID.

                Caution:

                    Creating partitions with this parameter might cause your
                    computer to fail or be unable to start up. Unless you are
                    an OEM or an IT professional experienced with GPT disks, do
                    not create partitions on GPT disks using this parameter.
                    Instead, always use the CREATE PARTITION EFI command to
                    create EFI System partitions, the CREATE PARTITION MSR
                    command to create Microsoft Reserved partitions, and the
                    CREATE PARTITION PRIMARY command without this parameter to
                    create primary partitions on GPT disks.

    ALIGN=   Typically used with hardware RAID Logical Unit Number (LUN)
                arrays to improve performance. The partition offset will be
                a multiple of . If the OFFSET parameter is specified, it 
                will be rounded to the closest multiple of .
                
    NOERR       For scripting only. When an error is encountered, DiskPart
                continues to process commands as if the error did not occur.
                Without the NOERR parameter, an error causes DiskPart to exit
                with an error code.

    After you create the partition, the focus automatically shifts to the new
    partition. The partition does not receive a drive letter. You must use the
    assign command to assign a drive letter to the partition.

    A basic disk must be selected for this operation to succeed.

Example:

    CREATE PARTITION PRIMARY SIZE=1000
    CREATE PARTITION PRIMARY SIZE=128 ID=c12a7328-f81f-11d2-ba4b-00a0c93ec93b
    CREATE PARTITION PRIMARY SIZE=10000 ID=12
    CREATE PARTITION PRIMARY SIZE=10000 ID=DE
