      I tried using fdisk -1 and fdisk -l and neither gave me a list of partitions. I got nothing with -l except a list of options which said I should get a partition list using that comand as well as a list of other options. I tried fdisk -s with the same results.

      I am on a win 98 machine and I installed Kubuntu by using the auto install provide by the disk. I have it on a second harddrive separate from the my primary drive. Both are internal drives. I can see the partitions if I use Disk & file systems under system administrator but I can not modify the windows partitions established before I installed the Kubuntu.

      I am pen to more suggestions.

        sudo fdisk -l /dev/hda
        .
