I did 'man fdisk' couple times before, and I still don't understand how
to use it. Forgive my ignorant please. Furthermore, at the end of 'man
fdisk' in the 'Bugs' section:
"fdisk is a buggy program that  does  fuzzy
       things - usually it happens to produce reasonable results.
       Its single advantage is that it has some support  for  BSD
       disk  labels and other non-DOS partition tables."

So, I am not really confident to just type fdisk. I don't want to loose
my other stuff. 
Thanks.
