Hello ,

I don't understand something in the sparc version of fdisk .

fdisk -l /dev/hda

/dev/hda1             0       406    204624   83  Linux native
/dev/hda2  u        406      3453   1535688   82  Linux swap
/dev/hda3             0     12019   6057576    5  Whole disk
/dev/hda4          3453      7516   2047752   83  Linux native
/dev/hda5          7516     11579   2047752   83  Linux native

/dev/hda1 end with cyl. 406 and /dev/hda2 start with cyl. 406 .

All boundaries  are the same between the partition and the precedent partition .

On my pc a partition start with the cylinder of the precedent partition + 1 .

the first 512 byte of /dev/hda and the 512 byte of  /dev/hda1 are
identical .

the partition must be start at cyl. 0 or at cyl. 1 ?
