SUSE 9.1 is affected too, moreover at least most distro using 2.6 kernel with Parted based partitioning code (quite many, unless fixed). Fdisk should be ok.

Will fdisk with its "x extra functionality (experts only)" command work?

I have used fdisk with the "x extra functionality (experts only)" command to change the CHS values a couple of times in the distant past, and do not remember a disaster happening.Does anyone here know whether that would be a suitable way of setting the drive geometry settings in the partition table, as an alternative to using the sfdisk method described in this article?
