It should be in /sbin/fdisk, so that it can be used in single user mode, or disaster recovery, when only the root partition can be mounted. It would be possible to boot via floppies, of course, but that might be inconvenient. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Message sent: From: iwj10@thor.cam.ac.uk (Ian Jackson) To: Lars Wirzenius Subject: Bug#1243: Acknowledgement (was: fdisk not on root partition) In-Reply-To: References: Thank you for the problem report you have sent regarding Debian GNU/Linux.
