According to a couple of different partitioning programs (Partition Magic and Ranesh), something is seriously wrong with the partition table on my second hard drive. Partition Magic can't even list its contents. Nevertheless neither cfdisk nor Yast finds anything wrong with it. Are there any other Linux partitioning programs that might be able to diagnose and fix the problem?
PM and linux programs seem to dissagree on some partition concepts. PM may say that a certain table is wrong and linux progrs find the same perfect. You also have fdisk and sfdisk - see the note at the end of "man fdisk" for a comparison. fdisk has a "v" verify command, by the way. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
