Hi stuart

I am using crunchbang lite 9.04.01 from virtualbox with windows xp as
a host system.

To run a command as administrator (user "root"), use "sudo <command>".
See "man sudo_root" for details.

crunchbang at crunchbang:~$ fdisk -l

The partition table has been altered!

Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table.

WARNING: Re-reading the partition table failed with error 13: Permission denied.
The kernel still uses the old table.
The new table will be used at the next reboot.
