Somebody else posted a very similar question quite recently. A Google Groups search would probably lead you to the answers pretty quickly. (Try "partition proc sfdisk" or something like that.) My previous answer was to call sfdisk, using os.popen(). Others suggested reading /proc/partitions. I doubt fdisk (if that's what you meant) is a good idea. There is no pure Python solution, so far as I know, probably because there may not be any standardized way of finding this information. -Peter -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
