I'm using Dell Dimension PIV 2.0 with 40GB harddisk. When I try to use fdisk 
to repartition my harddisk, I got this error.

[begin]

# fdisk /dev/hda

Command (m for help): p

Disk /dev/hda: 255 heads, 63 sectors, 2491 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 bytes


8 partitions:
#       start       end      size     fstype   [fsize bsize   cpg]
  a:        1         7*        6*    4.2BSD     1024  8192    16
  b:        7*       40*       32*      swap
  c:        1      2492*     2491*    unused        0     0
  e:       40*       42*        2*    4.2BSD     1024  8192    16
  f:       42*     2492*     2449*    4.2BSD     1024  8192    16

Command (m for help): n
Segmentation fault

[end]

any idea why this happens and how to partition it using fdisk?
