Hello manu,

Thank you for your quick reply.


The partitioning of he disk was made on Linux (Debian Stretch with sfdisk 
& ntfs-3g).

The first 512 bytes of the /dev/sda are attached.

Here is the output of "parted /dev/sda print":
<<BEGIN>>
Model: VMware Virtual disk (scsi)
Disk /dev/sda: 85,9GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: atari
Disk Flags: 

Number  Start  End    Size    Type     File system  Flags
 1      273MB  277MB  4196kB  primary               boot
<<END>>

I also attached a print of parted and fdisk to show you the difference.
I need parted to get some informations of the existing partitions => the 
problem is only the first partition sda1 is visible (no sda2 & sda3). 

With best regards,
Franz Simader

Can you post the output of

parted /dev/my_device print

and attach the first 512 bytes of the the disk to this bug report ?

Did the partitioning of the disk was made on Windows ?
