Try running cfdisk with the -z option. This ignores the MBR and starts afresh with a blank one. If that fails, try zeroing the MBR with dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hdX bs=512 count=1 If it still fails, it would appear to be a broken disk. -- Neil Bothwick To most people solutions mean finding the answers.
