Hello I am running Ubuntu 10.10: fdisk (util-linux-ng 2.17.2) I propose to add description for 0x27 partition type, which is a hidden NTFS partition type 0x7, containing WinRE: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Recovery_Environment I propose to add the name "Hidden NTFS WinRE" Would a patch be supported for review? Please keep my email address in replies as I am not on this email list. Best regards, Jon There is a page online with a list of partition types which includes this: http://www.win.tue.nl/~aeb/partitions/partition_types-1.html root@ubuntu:/# fdisk /dev/sda WARNING: DOS-compatible mode is deprecated.
