fdisk, windows partition
A short question, because I detected something in my fdisk. Here is it, question below.
Disk /dev/sda: 500.1 GB, 500107862016 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 60801 cylinders, total 976773168 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: 0xebdd09e2
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 63 131600248 65800093 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sda2 131604480 976768064 422581792+ 5 Extended
/dev/sda5 131604544 976768064 422581760+ 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
Disk /dev/sdb: 64.0 GB, 64023257088 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 7783 cylinders, total 125045424 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: 0x00073296
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdb1 * 2048 113326079 56662016 83 Linux
/dev/sdb2 113326080 125044735 5859328 82 Linux swap / Solaris
fdisk: unable to read /dev/mapper/
1. What is a inappropriate ioctl, and do I have to worry about it (last line)?
2. /dev/sda2 and /dev/sda5 appear as different file systems about approximatly the same range ?!? It is a NTFS partition from Windows (on a 2nd HDD in my computer and there are just two partitions). Why is one partition seen as two?
Thanks a lot for your help in advance.
