ittle complicated, and I'm afraid I still can't
really see the point.

useful. It's quite rare for the partition table to get hosed without other
data on the disk suffering a similar fate.
I hope this helps, at any rate.

fdisk will do the job, just use the -l switch ...
fdisk -l /dev/hda > hda-partitions
...will dump the partition table for /dev/hda to a file named
hda-partitions.

Is there a program in Debian to dump the fdisk data to a file?
I would like to do `fdisk-dump /dev/hda > /etc/hda.fdisk` so that if the
partition table gets corrupted I can do
`fdisk-restore /dev/hda < /etc/hda.fdisk` . Is there any software in Debian
that allows such operations?
