Hi; Over the last 3 Fedora installs, I have managed to get my partition numbers out of sequence. parted /dev/sdb returns: Number Start End Size Type File system Flags 1 8225kB 41.1GB 41.1GB extended lba 5 8258kB 90.5MB 82.2MB logical ext3 boot 6 90.5MB 1349MB 1258MB logical linux-swap 7 1349MB 9739MB 8390MB logical ext3 8 9739MB 30.6GB 20.9GB logical ext3 9 30.6GB 41.1GB 10.5GB logical fat32 Starting correctly with number 1 (sdb1) then jumps to 5 (sdb5). How can I rename my partitions so that they go in sequence; sdb1, sdb2, ... sdb6. This is simply a neatness fetish; the numbering is not presently causing any problems to the actual opeation of F-7. Am I best just to leave it alone, or is there a simple way or program that can re-number these partitions? -- Regards Bill
