You can look this up by using cfdisk, > if you like. In that case, Actually, the first four are primary, and 5 and above are logical. If you have logical partitions, at least one of the primary is used to provide them, so there may be a skip e.g. from hda3 to hda5 if you have 3 primary partitions and 1 or more logical partitions. In any case, no logical partition will be numbered lower than 5. Things may be different for scsi disks, which you are using here, but I am not aware of that if they are. -- Hans Fugal | De gustibus non disputandum est. http://hans.fugal.net/ | Debian, vim, mutt, ruby, text, gpg http://gdmxml.fugal.net/ | WindowMaker, gaim, UTF-8, RISC, JS Bach --------------------------------------------------------------------- GnuPG Fingerprint: 6940 87C5 6610 567F 1E95 CB5E FC98 E8CD E0AA D460
