Assertion (metadata_length > 0) at ../../libparted/disk_dos.c:1935 in function add_logical_part_metadata() failed. I think there is a problem on my partition table. fdisk still works but the ubuntu 6.06 install says that no disk is present. The problem started after I added a new partition with fdisk. This is before the change. #partition table of /dev/hda unit: sectors /dev/hda1 : start= 4 63, size= 11277567, Id= 7 /dev/hda2 : start= 11277630, size= 41945715, Id=83, bootable /dev/hda3 : start= 53223345, size=266936040, Id= f /dev/hda4 : start= 0, size= 0, Id= 0 /dev/hda5 : start= 53223408, size=209712447, Id= 7 /dev/hda6 : start=262935918, size= 44949744, Id=83 /dev/hda7 : start=307885725, size= 12273660, Id=83 And this is after. # partition table of /dev/hda unit: sectors /dev/hda1 : start= 63, size= 11277567, Id= 7 /dev/hda2 : start= 11277630, size= 41945715, Id=83, bootable /dev/hda3 : start= 53223345, size=266936040, Id= f /dev/hda4 : start= 0, size= 0, Id= 0 /dev/hda5 : start= 53223408, size=197265618, Id= 7 /dev/hda6 : start=250489089, size= 10946766, Id=83 /dev/hda7 : start=261435918, size= 1500000, Id=82 /dev/hda8 : start=262935918, size= 44949744, Id=83 /dev/hda9 : start=307885725, size= 12273660, Id=83 xp has problems seeing the size of hda. I hope that is enough info. If you have any ideas of how I can fix my partitions it will be appreciated but it is not really necessarry at the moment.
