Hello,

I'm having a very anoying problem since I've upgraded
Linux Mandrake 7.2 to 8.0 on two computers. 

The first computer has a hard disk of aprox. 5 GB,
four primary partitions: the first two are NTFS, the
third is the Linux system partition, and another Linux
swap partition
The active partition is the linux one which contains
lilo.
After upgrading from Mandrake 7.2 to 8.0 I noticed
that NT doesn't see the second partition. The reason
is that a linux component (probably lilo) had changed
the partition type into 17 (hidden HPFS/NTFS).
I tried to change it back to 7 (NTFS) but when I've
booted NT, the partition it's again hidden.

On the second box, HDD 20GB, the mandrake 8.0 upgrade
modified the partition table worst than on the first
one.

The fdisk -V /dev/hda reports an amount of sectors
unallocated. The cfdisk sees two segments of free
space on the disk.

I forget to mention that I didn't modified the
partition table during the upgrade, on neither
computer.

Did someone had this problem already ?   

Thanks,
Tudor.
