Not sure if this is what was supposed to happen, or if it worked or not....

heres the output after I answered yes to writing the new partition:

Code:

Sucessfully wrote the new partition table....

If you created or changed a dos partition, /dev/foo7, say, then use dd
(1)
to zero the first 512 bytes: dd if =/dev/zero of=/dev/foo7 bs=512 count=1
(see fdisk(8).)
