--- Comment #7 from Thomas Fehr <fehr@xxxxxxxxxx>  2007-08-13 04:10:07 MST ---
The partition table on your disk was invalid.
Your disk has 14589 cylinders but your last partition ended on cylinder 14593.
This makes parted display the error message 
"Can't have a partition outside the disk" and refuse to display partitions for
that disk. 
In this case YaST2 falls back to information from /proc/partitions but is
unable 
to modify partitions except deleting the partition table.
