Try
Code:
sudo fdisk -l Debian disallows login with root and "fdisk -l" is a system-related command requiring root privileges. The above should overcome it. |

yeah thought as much. this guy has still not tried to clarify "shows nothing" yet though... path issue or something? maybe he's just not reading it right... i do recall some versions of fdisk require the single /dev entry and only show on a per disk basis. think that was redhat 7.3 i had that on.

Ubuntu is a variant of Debian and inherits much of its security arrangement.

On debian:
I am use fdisk -l (run as root)!!! Nothing happen, any erro, any message!!! so I try this command with othes distribution (Fedora Core 5) it show information about all disks. strange not work on debian 3.1r1, kernel 2.4.27-2-386!!! others ideas? |
I don't know a lot about debian releases but 3.1 seems like a pretty small number for a release, is this an older release or something? It's possible the fdisk you have is an out of date version as kewpie suggested. Try listing the device directly:
Code:
#fdisk -l /dev/hda Code:
#fdisk -h regards, ...drkstr |

You are right. Debian reacts differently to the sudo command than Ubuntu. I tried "sudo fdisk -l" on my Ubuntu 5.10 Breezy before putting up my last reply. Tried again and it certainly works OK for me. For Debian I have to do a "su" first. |
ok 2 things to try, both can be ran as user:
Code:
df -h Code:
cat /etc/fstab Code:
df -h hope that helps. |

do you have sudo setup for your debian box? if not then sudo will not work for you. |
