Hi there,

it's me again. I repartioned a IBM-hd with 4330 MB but when running 
fdisk with 2.6.0-test8-pa4, fdisk  told me:

--------><------------
gandalf:~# fdisk /dev/sdb

Befehl (m für Hilfe): p

Cause some bytes are missing ;)  I booted 2.4.22-pa13 and fdisk is now 
telling the correct values:

I have a 715/100 with 128 MB, a 2GB Seagate and a 4GB IBM-HD.
With my 2GB fdisk seems to have no problem:
