Hello,

till 2.6.7-rc2 I can access my USB memory Stick without problem, but not
with 2.6.7-rc3... which gave strange partition on it :

sk /dev/sdg: 520 MB, 520092160 bytes
16 heads, 62 sectors/track, 1023 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 992 * 512 = 507904 bytes

Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdg1 ? 784412 1935127 570754815+ 72 Unknown
Partition 1 has different physical/logical beginnings (non-Linux?):
phys=(357, 116, 40) logical=(784411, 3, 11)
Partition 1 has different physical/logical endings:
phys=(357, 32, 45) logical=(1935126, 8, 51)
Partition 1 does not end on cylinder boundary.

Partition 2 has different physical/logical beginnings (non-Linux?):

Partition 4 has different physical/logical beginnings (non-Linux?):
phys=(372, 97, 50) logical=(0, 0, 1)
Partition 4 has different physical/logical endings:
phys=(0, 10, 0) logical=(3666558, 15, 30)
Partition 4 does not end on cylinder boundary.

Partition table entries are not in disk order

Any reason for that?

Please CC to me as I only read the list through nntp ;-)
