Alright, so I just tried to install a Windows version to a physical disk within VMware, For some odd reason it did not ask me which partition to use. Although I have done this many a times, and it has worked. I noticed this, and Immediately cancelled the installation. I then checked fdisk - l, and bam only One partition. Even though I am running linux right now on the same disk on a single partition out of 10. I can still access my other partitions via Nautilus, so I am assuming my data is somewhat safe as of now. I am running testdisk to see if it can find my partition structure, but I was wondering if there was anyway to get the current partition structure out of memory, or if it is stored anywhere, so I could have a clean cut exact replica of my partition table does anybody know where I can find this?

You could boot a live Linux CD to view the hardware configuration. The live Linux CD will take VMWare out of the equation.

Thanks for the reply

I am on a physical host Linux, which is still working... I used testdisk to get my partitions back... read the sector numbers, and fdisk'd them back in. Thanks though...
