Who the fdisk?
Submitted by Worzie on Fri, 2007-02-02 14:39. fdisk | TipsFound 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 Disk /dev/hda: 40.9 GB, 40982151168 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 4982 cylinders
