Hi!
I think I have a serious problem with my partition table. I did all the
partitions with fdisk but may be not right, or somewhen screwed my partition
table up. I want to use a graphical tool like gparted also doing some changes
on my fat32 partition. But when I installed gparted I got an empty partition
table with nothing than
unallocated 55.89 GB (my disk is an 60 GB Hitachi)
nothing else!!!
Here is my outpu from
# fdisk -l
fdisk -l
Disk /dev/hda: 60.0 GB, 60011642880 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 7296 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 * 1 1913 15361888+ 7 HPFS/NTFS
Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/dev/hda2 1914 4208 18427027+ c W95 FAT32 (LBA)
Partition 2 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/dev/hda3 5100 7296 17637480 f W95 Ext'd (LBA)
Partition 3 does not end on cylinder boundary.
/dev/hda4 4208 5099 7164990 83 Linux
/dev/hda5 * 5100 5108 68008+ 83 Linux
/dev/hda6 5108 5173 521608+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris
/dev/hda7 5173 7296 17047768+ 83 Linux
Partition table entries are not in disk order
This seems wrong to me. Also parted says something with overlapping partitions
and its right I think. Is there any chance to repair this without destroying
the whole installation? I have backuped my installation with rsync and also did
save my mbr:
dd if=/dev/hda of=/backup/mbr512.img bs=512 count=1
and
dd if=/dev/hda of=/backup/mbr446.img bs=446 count=1
Must I somehow reinstall my partition table? And how to do this?
Ok, thank you and have a nice sunday!
