You can see it by doing the following: dd if=/dev/hde of=/tmp/hde bs=1M count=4 dd if=/dev/hdf of=/tmp/hdf bs=1M count=4 skip=5120 that generates a file with the disk data of both disks (assuming they are hde and hdf); if you inspect the contents of that with, say, an hex editor, you should see that they are the same. The '5120' is the assumed "offset".. Greetings, Arjan van de Ven
