Hi Stefan, |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
small shot into the deep dark.... : |

As far as I know, you can switch fdisk to display either to |
| 49 |
diplay units in cylinders or in sectors. |
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
Usage: |
| 53 |
fdisk [options] <disk> change partition table |
| 54 |
fdisk [options] -l <disk> list partition table(s) |
| 55 |
fdisk -s <partition> give partition size(s) in blocks |
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
Options: |
| 58 |
-b <size> sector size (512, 1024, 2048 or 4096) |
| 59 |
-c[=<mode>] compatible mode: 'dos' or 'nondos' (default) |
| 60 |
-h print this help text |
| 61 |
-u[=<unit>] display units: 'cylinders' or 'sectors' (default) |
| 62 |
-v print program version |
| 63 |
-C <number> specify the number of cylinders |
| 64 |
-H <number> specify the number of heads |
| 65 |
-S <number> specify the number of sectors per track |
| 66 |
|
| 67 |
|
| 68 |
When switched to display sector units it is only a matter of counting |
| 69 |
to find the partition in question I would guess... |
| 70 |
|
| 71 |
Good luck! |

Best regards, |
