When trying to create the partition tables, I get up to the 'write' step and see this:
Command (m for help): w
The partition table has been altered!
Calling ioctl() to re-read partition table.
WARNING: Re-reading the partition table failed with error 16: Device or resource busy.
The kernel still uses the old table.
The new table will be used at the next reboot.
Syncing disks.
------------------------
The irony here, is that I've come a LONG way to get this live disk to boot with the correct xorg.conf, and honestly, I'd rather not reboot.
Is there something I'm missing? Does the drive need to be remounted or something?
As part of your learning then you will need to read up on how fdisk works.Quote:

If something does go wrong you should only need to repeat the fdisk steps again.
thanks for the file
Hi masters
I`m an Iranian user of BT4
I followed the installation guide step by step , but stopped in the same line of our friend witch they had problem:
cd --preserved -R /{bin,dev,home,pentest,root,usr,boot,etc,lib,opt,sb in,var} /mnt/bt/
Our friends had typed the command line incorrect and encountered those problems
But I am sure that I have typed the exact command line in my Vmware7 virtual machine
but I encountered the not enough free space error or permission error
I am disappointed
Can any one here help me????
in command line I`ve typed "sbin" without space and in my comment wrote the same thing,but here in the forum it seem to have a space that is incorrect
I have wrote the command line without any extra spaces and exactly like the guide line
plz help me :)
I have faced this error message:
cp: preserving permissions for `/bt/dev/hdc` : Operation not supported
hhhheeeeeeeelllllllllllllllllppppp me!!!!!!!!!:confused::confused:
