Subject: Warning!  Don't use PCTOOLS DISKFIX with linux

If you do endup using PCTOOLS DISKFIX, make sure you write
down your partition table first. It turns out this program
will completely trash your partition table. You'll then have
to use A1 and A2 to allow you to use linux's fdisk to restore
your table. (Yes this is from experience. Fortunately I
remembered my partition setup.)

I still wonder why linux won't let me allocate my last sector...

P.S. (Even the DOS partition will be trashed.)
