Hi,

I think, there i an error by partitioning your disk.

sda1 end on cyl 3825
sda2 bgins on   3825
sda 2 ends on  36988
sda 3 begins on 36988

So you used cyl 3825 and cyl 36988 twice.

sda5 6 and 7 shows correct
20397 == 20398
36308 == 36309

So you have to resize sda 2 to cyl 3826 to 36987

best regards and a nice day

Hi,

o.k., try to help.

I need some information from you. I think you have debian on sda6. Can
you start this? Or, otherwise, what medium you used for install debian?

It may not be relavant but I encountered the error message partition
does not end on cylinder boundary when trying to install linux-base.
The installation invoked dosfslabel which crashed with this message.

e2fsck reported every partition was clean.  I deleted the suspect
partiion (determined by running dosfslabel on each partition) and used
every method (parted, gparted, fdisk, cfdisk) create a new partition
without eliminating the problem.

Finally I deleted every entry from /etc/fstab except those defining hard
drive partitions.  Then linux-base installed without a wimper.  I
believe running verify after creating the new partition still produced
the error message partition does not end on cylinder boundary but
e2fsck finds no fault with the partitions and I have not encountered any
problems with my system.
