Guys, I wrote an ISO to /dev/sdb1 (My 1TB HD) instead of /dev/sdc1 (8GB pendrive I was trying to make bootable).

Code: # fdisk -l /dev/sda

Disk /dev/sda: 1000.2 GB, 1000204886016 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 121601 cylinders, total 1953525168 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x85bda12f

System Needs Tuning 50 weeks 1 day ago

my ubuntu desktop seems to be running very slow, I wonder if the swap is mounted correctly?

root@xxxx:/home# fdisk -l

Disk /dev/sda: 1000.2 GB, 1000204886016 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 121601 cylinders, total 1953525168 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x

[SOLVED] how to fix MBR? 15 weeks 4 days ago

I had pretty much the same problem but it looked strange to me as the linux partition was installed in an extended one.Here is the ouput of fdisk -l :Disk /dev/sda: 320.1 GB, 320072933376 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 38913 cylinders, total 625142448 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512

This is my new output but I didn't manage to fix the order...[konos@archBox ~]$ sudo fdisk -l Warning: ignoring extra data in partition table 5 Warning: ignoring extra data in partition table 5 Warning: ignoring extra data in partition table 5

Disk /dev/sda: 200.0 GB, 200049647616 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 24321 cylinders, total 390721968 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 byt

So I'm using Ubuntu live CD to install Ubuntu next to Windows 7 but it doesn't recognize partitions.

Here is sudo fdisk -l:

Disk /dev/sda: 640.1 GB, 640135028736 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 77825 cylinders, total 1250263728 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes Disk identifi

I have a disk, say /dev/sda.

Ubuntu was installed first taking up the whole HD. Then I installed Fedora by resizing Ubuntu partition making room for its installation.

Hey all,Before installing Arch I backed up my windows partition (NTFS) with partimage.
