cfdisk complains about my partition table
Hi, I recently read in the fdisk manpage that cfdisk would be a better program to use, so I thought I would give it a try. But all it says is: FATAL ERROR: Bad logical partition 5: enlarged logical partitions overlap Press any key to exit cfdisk What are enlarged logical partitions? Is it time for me to panic? Or is cfdisk just too strict? My partition table follows. I used several programs over time to create and modify my partitions. I think the first one was created using Partition Magic, the second one by DiskDruid under RedHat, and the rest using YaST. I'd appreciate any comments.
