Hi, I have some kind of a partition problem. It exists some months, but i could use everyting whithout problems. The only thing i couldn't do is defrag my win-disk. The problem has to do with ending/beginning of a partition
Output of cfdisk: Name Flags Part Type FS Type [Label] Size (MB) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /dev/hda1 Boot Primary DOS FAT16 (big) [ ] 300.24 /dev/hda2 Boot Primary Linux ext2 100.41 /dev/hda5 Logical DOS FAT16 (big) [WIN DATA ] 1000.13 /dev/hda6 Logical Linux ext2 1250.16 /dev/hda7 Logical Linux ext2 498.10 /dev/hda8 Logical Linux ext2 3000.38 Pri/Log Free Space 0.50 This is my fdisk output: Using /dev/hda as default device!

No winblows program can repair this, not even pm4. Maybe some unix-tool may? -- Bernhard Dobbels Student Electronic Engineer option Automation and Computersystems.
