Marco, re-reading your message, I see that only a few of your partitions are Linux. LVM would not be usable for the rest, so ignore all that. Hello Robert!
Thanks for your double response! Sorry for my delayed reply, but I spent almost two days to get rid of the issue and finally I've sorted it out. I'm not using LVM here, but EXT-4 with an extended partition. I had to re-partitioning my HDD in order to have the number of sectors divisible by 8 as requested by my 1 Terabyte HDD Western Digital, which has the advanced format using 4096 bytes/Sector. Now I don't get anymore the "Boundary" warning message, by the way my partitions are not "disk ordered", due the fact that I had to rearrange everything on the fly using Gparted. I've read that this unordered partitions doesn't represent a problem in any form, so for the moment I will stay with it. (I'm including in this email the list "opensuse-support" as well, in order to update the topic in general and provide an update to Carlos in particular, since him has provided me some feedback's) #Current HDD onfiguration marco@linux-turion64:~> sudo fdisk -x [sudo] password di root: Disk /dev/sda: 931,51 GiB, 1000204886016 bytes, 1953525168 sectors Disk model: WDC WD10SPZX-22Z Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes Disklabel type: dos Disk identifier: 0x5bc53d8b Dispositivo Avvio Start Fine Settori Id Tipo Start-C/H/S End-C/H/S Attrs /dev/sda1 * 2048 514047 512000 7 HPFS 0/32/33 31/254/31 80 /dev/sda2 1919971328 1953523711 33552384 82 Linu 1023/254/63 1023/254/63 /dev/sda3 976773120 1919971327 943198208 83 Linu 1023/254/63 1023/254/63 /dev/sda4 514048 976773119 976259072 f W95 31/254/32 1023/254/63 /dev/sda5 820649984 976773119 156123136 83 Linu 1023/254/63 1023/254/63 /dev/sda6 224763904 820647935 595884032 7 HPFS 1023/254/63 1023/254/63 /dev/sda7 516096 1437695 921600 7 HPFS 32/32/1 89/125/36 /dev/sda8 1439744 224761855 223322112 7 HPFS 89/158/6 1023/254/63 *Partition table entries are not in disk order.* And this was *before*: #Previous HDD configuration marco@linux-turion64:~> sudo fdisk -x Disk /dev/sda: 931,51 GiB, 1000204886016 bytes, 1953525168 sectors Disk model: WDC WD10SPZX-22Z Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes Disklabel type: dos Disk identifier: 0x5bc53d8b Dispositivo Avvio Start Fine Settori Id Tipo Start-C/H/S End-C/H/S Attrs /dev/sda1 * 2048 1026036 1023989 7 HPFS 0/32/33 63/221/19 80 /dev/sda2 1026037 447673612 446647576 7 HPFS 63/221/20 218/100/23 /dev/sda3 447673613 449516792 1843180 27 Hidd 218/100/24 333/32/12 /dev/sda4 449516793 1953523118 1504006326 f W95 333/32/13 769/48/30 /dev/sda5 449516795 617287136 167770342 83 Linu 333/32/15 536/88/33 /dev/sda6 617287138 1918772938 1301485801 83 Linu 536/88/35 654/23/20 /dev/sda7 1918772940 1953521663 34748724 82 Linu 654/23/22 1023/254/63 Partition 2 does not start on physical sector boundary.
