In this case, there is no partition table on the magneto optical media
(since there seems little reason for such things)
$ fdisk -l /dev/sda
Note: sector size is 2048 (not 512)
Disk /dev/sda: 64 heads, 32 sectors, 151 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 2048 * 2048 bytes
Disk /dev/sda doesn't contain a valid partition table
$
$ file -s /dev/sda
/dev/sda: Linux rev 1.0 ext2 filesystem data
