According to my logs, in Oct 2005 I used a method that was publicised on
these
groups, and it worked for me, and now I'm trying to remember how it worked.
It went something like this:-
A script which repeatedly calls `fdisk` while increasing the size of the
new-partition, and thus incrementally moving the partition "boundry" of
the new/next partition, and testing for
<yes that's where the previously lost boundry WAS>.
That sounds like something I wrote several years ago.
I can't find the script right now, but IIRC it looped with a new
call to fdisk (with changed parameters in a here document) in each
iteration.
I'll see if I can find it.
