The first time you run MOSLO as described in the installation guide, your mmcblk0 will be repartitioned, so that your partition 1 (MyDocs) is split into two parts, and the upper (4G) part is then assigned to partition 4.

It looks a bit weird but it's a valid partition configuration.

If I remember correctly it works without losing your data but to be sure backup your MyDocs before doing that. (if I remember correctly I had to reformat my partition 1 after that...)

After partitioning it will look something like this:

Code:

~ # /sbin/sfdisk -l

Disk /dev/mmcblk0: 1957120 cylinders, 4 heads, 16 sectors/track
Units = cylinders of 32768 bytes, blocks of 1024 bytes, counting from 0

   Device Boot Start     End   #cyls    #blocks   Id  System
/dev/mmcblk0p1         16  1632511  1632496   52239872    c  FAT32
		end: (c,h,s) expected (1023,3,16) found (1023,63,32)
/dev/mmcblk0p2     1760512  1891583  131072    4194304   83  Linux
/dev/mmcblk0p3     1891584  1957119   65536    2097152   83  Linux
/dev/mmcblk0p4     1632512  1760511  128000    4096000   83  Linux
		start: (c,h,s) expected (1023,3,16) found (1023,63,32)
		end: (c,h,s) expected (1023,3,16) found (1023,63,32)
