i have a t23 with 60BG drive partioned thusly:
Disk /dev/hda: 60.0 GB, 60011642880 bytes
240 heads, 63 sectors/track, 7752 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 15120 * 512 = 7741440 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 * 1 655 4951768+ c W95 FAT32 (LBA)
/dev/hda2 7621 7752 997920 1c Hidden W95 FAT32 (LBA)
/dev/hda3 656 7473 51544080 5 Extended
/dev/hda4 7474 7620 1111320 a0 IBM Thinkpad hibernation
/dev/hda5 656 708 400648+ 83 Linux
/dev/hda6 709 1792 8195008+ 83 Linux
/dev/hda7 1793 2470 5125648+ 83 Linux
/dev/hda8 2471 2609 1050808+ 82 Linux swap
/dev/hda9 2610 7473 36771808+ 83 Linux
i want to recreate this system on a larger 80GB drive, using
systemrescueCD and partimage, but i cannot seem to use qtparted
make the same device name/numbers for the 8 slices. if i make
the third partition the extended partition, it skips hda4 altogether:
Disk /dev/hda: 80.0 GB, 80026361856 bytes
240 heads, 63 sectors/track, 10337 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 15120 * 512 = 7741440 bytes
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/hda1 * 1 4334 32765008+ c W95 FAT32 (LBA)
/dev/hda2 4335 4469 1020600 c W95 FAT32 (LBA)
/dev/hda3 4470 10337 44362080 f W95 Ext'd (LBA)
/dev/hda5 4470 4604 1020568+ e IBM Thinkpad hibernation
/dev/hda6 4605 4657 400648+ e Linux
/dev/hda7 4658 5716 8006008+ e Linux
/dev/hda8 5717 6378 5004688+ e Linux
/dev/hda9 6379 6513 1020568+ e Linux swap
/dev/hda10 6514 10337 28909408+ e Linux
this will be a problem as fstab will point to the wrong slices, and
the hibernate which is expecting to use hda4 won't find it.
how can i get the device name/numbers in the above example?
thanks much in advance.
