I'm confused by the output of the partition command, this is the partition table created by the installer:
current partition table (original): Total disk cylinders available: 24318 + 2 (reserved cylinders) Part Tag Flag Cylinders Size Blocks 0 root wm 1 - 24316 186.27GB (24316/0/0) 390636540 1 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 2 backup wu 0 - 24317 186.29GB (24318/0/0) 390668670 3 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 4 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 5 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 6 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 7 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 8 boot wu 0 - 0 7.84MB (1/0/0) 16065 9 unassigned wm 0 0 (0/0/0) 0 It seems like the partition 0,2,8 are sharing the same part of the disk. How is this possible?
