code:
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 91201 cylinders  units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes  sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes  i/o size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes  disk identifier: 0xb0000000       device boot      start         end      blocks   id  system  /dev/sda1               1           9       72261   de  dell utility  /dev/sda2              10        1968    15728640    7  hpfs/ntfs  /dev/sda3   *        1968       46317   356239958+   7  hpfs/ntfs  /dev/sda4           46318       91201   360530730    5  extended  /dev/sda5           46318       89971   350650723+  83  linux  /dev/sda6           89972       91201     9879943+  82  linux swap / solaris    disk /dev/sdb: 1000.2 gb, 1000204886016 bytes  255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 121601 cylinders  units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes  sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes  i/o size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes  disk identifier: 0x000c529c       device boot      start         end      blocks   id  system  /dev/sdb1               1      121601   976760001    7  hpfs/ntfs
