Interesting. Will this work if I have to fix partitions that do not end on cylinder boundaries? > fdisk -l /dev/hdc Disk /dev/hdc: 16 heads, 63 sectors, 79656 cylinders Units = cylinders of 1008 * 512 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hdc1 * 1 64 32098+ 83 Linux Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary: phys=(3, 254, 63) should be (3, 15, 63) /dev/hdc2 64 79401 39985785 5 Extended Partition 2 does not end on cylinder boundary: phys=(1023, 254, 63) should be (1023, 15, 63) /dev/hdc5 64 1052 497983+ 82 Linux swap /dev/hdc6 1052 39812 19535008+ 83 Linux /dev/hdc7 39812 59192 9767488+ 83 Linux /dev/hdc8 59192 79401 10185178+ 83 Linux I was planning repartition using fdisk but if there is a tool to change the partitions w/o having to later format the partitions, great!
