/dev/sda2 25497 60801 283587412+ 5 Extended
/dev/sda5 25497 59489 273048741 83 Linux
/dev/sda6 59490 60801 10538608+ 82 Linux swap / Solaris
wrote to disk....
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.
Can I get the kernel to restore the one loaded in memory?
