The fdisk command displays some partitions with a plus sign in the Bocks number. root@orion> fdisk -l /dev/sdb Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdb1 * 1 127 1020096 83 Linux /dev/sdb2 128 2039 15358140 83 Linux /dev/sdb3 2040 2294 2048287+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris /dev/sdb4 2295 9729 59721637+ 5 Extended I understand the meaning is that not all the blocks are included in the fdisk value. Is this meaningful at all when resizing/moving/copying a partition or creating a volume or raid disk? ~af -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
