The fdisk -l does not come back with anything, i just returns to the
command prompt. The *fdisk -l* does not run at all and just says command
not found. The dmesg does not give me the disk size in the output either.
Any more ideas?
Regards

Fdisk tells you the size of the disk, as well as the partitions.
# fdisk -l
Disk /dev/sda: 72.9 GB, 72999763968 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 8875 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 1 13 104391 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 14 1288 10241437+ 82 Linux swap
/dev/sda3 1289 8875 60942577+ 8e Linux LVM
On the first line of output it says the disk is 72.9GB.
