Who the fdisk?

Found another cool time saver tip. For me I find myself looking for partition mount points. So I usually do:

fdisk /dev/hda

The number of cylinders for this disk is set to 4982.
There is nothing wrong with that, but this is larger than 1024,
and could in certain setups cause problems with:
1) software that runs at boot time (e.g., old versions of LILO)
2) booting and partitioning software from other OSs
   (e.g., DOS FDISK, OS/2 FDISK)

Command (m for help): p

I would do this for all drives, or if I didn't know what device, I could run through the alphabet. Most recently I was searching for a USB thumb drive I just plugged in. So here is my time saver tip just learned today:

fdisk -l

Looky looky, all my drives that make up my boxtop backup server. Will have to post the pic of that here soon.
