Hello, Is it possible that fdisk could damage / kill a hard drive after using the "Fix partition order" command? It seems that that is exactly what happened to me two times already, with two different hard drives. First time I thought that it was my hard drive's fault as it was pretty old and cheap, So I bought a new not-so-cheap one and was quite happy with until today, when I used that evil command again! Both of HDDs seem unrecoverable. When either is plugged BIOS gets stuck at initial screen (can't even enter setup). Using a USB adapter didn't help either... I'm not an expert in hard drives, but could it be the result of a corrupted / bad sector in the place where the partition table is stored? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe util-linux" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
