Hi, $ fdisk -v fdisk v2.9w $fdisk -l /dev/hda Disk /dev/hda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 1027 cylinders Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 646 1027 3068415 83 Linux /dev/hda2 * 608 645 305235 83 Linux /dev/hda3 1 607 4875696 83 Linux $ fdisk -l -u /dev/hda Disk /dev/hda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 1027 cylinders Units = sectors of 1 * 512 bytes Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 10361925 16498754 3068415 83 Linux /dev/hda2 * 9751455 10361924 305235 83 Linux /dev/hda3 63 9751454 4875696 83 Linux Do you see a difference? To see all disks you can use fdisk -l -u /dev/hd? /dev/sd? or try another program sfdisk -l -uS Mirek
