I assumed it would be in the same place...
I guess there is no way to find out what the old one looked like?

I can try to do so...how? :)
When I look into the partition with cfdisk, I can see what
cylinders/heads/sectors it uses. But I'm sure there are other tools?

Interestingly, after a reboot cfdisk shows me a 801575.31 MB partition and
2199023.26 MB free space, although I wrote a single partition of 3000598.57
MB into the table before rebooting.
