Here's something strange I noticed in the comparison between the two fdisk reports above. Your partitions start with the next cylinder, e.g. sda1 ends with 262 and sda2 starts with 263. However, mine starts with the same one, e.g. hda1 ends with 2710 and hda2 starts with 2710 (the same one). Maybe the partition boundary is somewhere within the same cylinder. Are the boundaries supposed to be between cylinders? I'm wondering if this is the overlap problem on my system that Partition Magic complained about. Ideas anyone?
fdisk, as supplied with Linux, will never allow you to start a new partition on the ending cylinder of another partition, in my experience.
Then again, I could be wrong. :) Gregory -- Gregory K. Ruiz-Ade <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> OpenPGP Key ID: EAF4844B keyserver: pgpkeys.mit.edu
