/sbin/fdisk didn't seem to mind much; cfdisk did (complained that partition table was larger than disk), and I assume that is the reason why d-i didn't show any partitions on this harddisk, even though a NTFS partition did exist. imho it should have shown it.How do you think should d-i cope with this? I think the best option for you would be to turn pio off in Linux if that's possible - I imagine there's a command line option for that.
It should have shown the partitions, even though one of them was larger than the disk.
