execute linux command with arguments

[sivareddy]

import subprocess myname=raw_input("myname=") subprocess.call(["pvcreate","/dev/",myname])

Output:
[root@xxx siva]# python test1.py myname=sdc Device /dev/ not found. Device sdc not found.

we are getting this error,but we can created with commands

Try '/dev/' + myname. When you write /dev/sdc on the command line, it is a single argument.
