Should I be worried about an output of "fdisk -l" that looks like this?!

I would, look at all those Win95 partition's :) Actually, if your referring to the "different physical/logical endings" part, I havn't encountered that yet myself.
If so, what should I do? I have no idea why it would be like it is
If in fact thats what your worried about, I suppose you could fdisk that partition out and then reinstate it later, but I don't think it will keep the same Device name when its reinstated.
