Hi all

Well do not know if this is the category for this post but hey, my problem is:

I want to do partitioning with "cfdisk" in a virtual machine name is VMware that has Ubuntu, is for a project of LFS so when I try to call the "cfdisk" and an error flag:

"FATAL ERROR: Can not open disk drive Press any key to exit cfdisk"
"Press any key to exit cfdisk"

Then try "fdisk" and I get nothing of what I need.

Then with "sudo cfdisk" and I went another different error:

"FATAL ERROR: Bad primary partition 1: Partition ends in the final partial cylinder"
"Press any key to exit cfdisk"

Not happened, I hope you can solve my question as soon.

Thanks to all ....
