DOS y Linux interpretarán el contenido de forma diferente. The system is in spanish, but the error says that /dev/sdb : permission deny and then : sfdidk : cant open /dev/sdb for read-write and then says: The extended partition not start in a cilinder limit. Dos and Linux can see the content of diferent way. Can anybody helpme? why i have this error? tnks and sorry about my english. bye
SOLVED, like the editor not use "sudo" you have to used like this: Code: sudo sfdisk -d /dev/sda | sudo sfdisk --force /dev/sdb thks
You must carry out all commands from that tutorial with root permissions. You can run Code: sudo su to become root.
