Hi,
when I create partitions with linux fdisk I cant see them from Windows. When I create partitions with windows fdisk linux fdisk says that the logical dont end on a physical cylinder. And when I look at the geometry of the disk with Partition Magic it says something completely different than linux fdisk. Is this a problem that only occurs in my system?
Could you mail the output of the partition list as fdisk sees it (in expert mode please) ?
Greetings, Arjan van de Ven
Here is the fdisk output:
Command (m for help): Expert command (m for help): Disk /dev/ataraid/d0: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 132 cylinders

Partition 1 has different physical/logical endings:
phys=(2, 63, 63) logical=(0, 191, 63)
Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary:
phys=(2, 63, 63) should be (2, 254, 63)

Partition 2 has different physical/logical beginnings (non-Linux?):
phys=(3, 0, 1) logical=(0, 192, 1)
Partition 2 has different physical/logical endings:
phys=(527, 63, 63) logical=(132, 131, 63)
Partition 2 does not end on cylinder boundary:
