Hi

address@hidden containing the version (1.6.21), and the following
message:

Assertion (metadata_length > 0) at ../../libparted/disk_dos.c:1935 in
function add_logical_part_metadata() failed.


I think there is a problem on my partition table. fdisk still works but
the ubuntu 6.06 install says that no disk is present. The problem
started after I added a new partition with fdisk.
This is before the change.
#partition table of /dev/hda
unit: sectors

/dev/hda1 : start=  4    63, size= 11277567, Id= 7
/dev/hda2 : start= 11277630, size= 41945715, Id=83, bootable
/dev/hda3 : start= 53223345, size=266936040, Id= f
/dev/hda4 : start=        0, size=        0, Id= 0
/dev/hda5 : start= 53223408, size=209712447, Id= 7
/dev/hda6 : start=262935918, size= 44949744, Id=83
/dev/hda7 : start=307885725, size= 12273660, Id=83

And this is after.
# partition table of /dev/hda
unit: sectors

/dev/hda1 : start=       63, size= 11277567, Id= 7
/dev/hda2 : start= 11277630, size= 41945715, Id=83, bootable
/dev/hda3 : start= 53223345, size=266936040, Id= f
/dev/hda4 : start=        0, size=        0, Id= 0
/dev/hda5 : start= 53223408, size=197265618, Id= 7
/dev/hda6 : start=250489089, size= 10946766, Id=83
/dev/hda7 : start=261435918, size=  1500000, Id=82
/dev/hda8 : start=262935918, size= 44949744, Id=83
/dev/hda9 : start=307885725, size= 12273660, Id=83

xp has problems seeing the size of hda. I hope that is enough info.

If you have any ideas of how I can fix my partitions it will be
appreciated but it is not really necessarry at the moment.

Thanks
Leon
