Partition errors
I discovered several errors after running fdisk -l while setting up my usb thumbdrive today. Below is a copy of the output from the fdisk -l that I ran. I really don't know if this is even an issue since everything seems to be running fine with the exception of my thumbdrive not unmounting when unplugged (mounts pretty much automatically when plugged in).
I guess all I'm asking is, "Has anyone seen this kind of output before and is it something to be concerned about since the system seems to be running fine?" I did a search for partition errors and found nothing like this.
BTW, I'm running a dual boot WinXP Pro / Fedora Core 2 laptop. I used Partition Magic 7 to free space from my Windows partition to make room for the Linux partition. Fedore install went fine (no errors noted).
Thanks
