cfdisk table: unusable space??
Looking at the cfsdisk table, I've just seen this (just look at the last
line of the table):
hda1 Boot Primary Linux ext2 78.45
hda2 Primary Linux ext2 78.45
hda5 Logical Linux ext2 1498.25
hda6 Logical Linux ext2 353.00
hda7 Logical Linux ext2 596.17
hda8 Logical Linux ext2 698.14
hda9 Logical Linux ext2 1098.20
hda10 Logical Linux ext2 1396.28
hda11 Logical Linux ext2 1396.28
hda12 Logical Linux ext2 376.53
hda13 Logical Linux ext2 266.71
hda3 Primary Linux Swap 196.11
Unusable 172.58
Unusable??? what does this mean?
fdisk reports at start:
The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 1046.
There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
(e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)
but the fdisk table says nothing about unusable space:
Command (m for help): p
Disk /dev/hda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 1046 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes
