First of all, I have not had the problem you describe. The fdisk used on
the Slackware bootdisk is one I compiled from the latest sources in
/pub/linux/sources/sbin on tsx-11.mit.edu. It is version 1.4, and is
newer than the ones I've seen with SLS (I think it uses fdisk 1.1
alpha).
Have other people experienced trouble with this version of fdisk?
