# fdisk -l /dev/hdi

Disk /dev/hdi: 160.0GB, 160041885696 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 19457 cylinders
Units = cyclindes of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes

  Device  Boot Start  End   Blocks    Id System
/dev/hdi1   *    1     13    104391   83 Linux
/dev/hdi2        14   19457 156183930 8e Linux LVM

Looks like partition 1 is there and formatted to me. Could it be too 
small?
