Partitions mixing up
- by anon
I am trying to install ubuntu alongside my windows 7. The problem is that ubuntu is not detecting all of my partitions and basically clubs together many of them. The same thing is done by using GParted. However this problem does not arise while I am using Windows - 7.
I cant paste the image of GParted since I dont have the required reputation...
I think this could be due to stray GPT data but am not sure how to take care of it.
Can someone help me figure this out ? The output of fdisk -l is as follows
Disk /dev/sda: 320.1 GB, 320072933376 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 38913 cylinders, total 625142448 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x20000000
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 63 2047 992+ 42 SFS
/dev/sda2 * 2048 206847 102400 42 SFS
/dev/sda3 206848 146802687 73297920 42 SFS
/dev/sda4 146802688 625140399 239168856 42 SFS
However actually I have 4 partitions along with 25 gb unallocated space that I had thought to use for Ubuntu installation.
