Warnings well heeded. I am almost too scared to do anything in Mandrake now - no just kidding.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] rosemary]# fdisk /dev/hda The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 4865. There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024, and could in certain setups cause problems with: 1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO) 2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK) Command (m for help): p Disk /dev/hda: 40.0 GB, 40020664320 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 4865 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 * 1 2364 18988798+ 7 HPFS/NTFS /dev/hda2 2423 4865 19623397+ 5 Extended /dev/hda5 2423 3186 6136798+ 83 Linux /dev/hda6 4808 4854 377496 83 Linux /dev/hda7 4855 4865 88326 82 Linux swap /dev/hda8 3187 3326 1124518+ 82 Linux swap /dev/hda9 3327 4807 11896101 83 Linux Partition table entries are not in disk order I can breathe now I am out of fdisk! regards Rosemary
