You are welcome!

As far as I know it is not possible. You have to set it with the fdisk
program. And at the end initialize the partitions. Thus all data is
destroyed...

What size is the harddisk anyway? Which fdisk is being used last time?
What might do the trick is initializing one partition at a time. The old
fdisk could do this, but was only capable of making maximum 6 partitions and
giving these access rights.
You could then copy one partition to another, clear the partition with fdisk
and ofcourse make it again with access right for host-id 7.

And: why bother to change the access rights. You know  now that you have to
use host-id 6 to be able to use this harddisk.
