oj@oj-laptop:~$ sudo fdisk -l  [sudo] password oj:     disk /dev/sda: 250.1 gb, 250059350016 bytes  255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30401 cylinders  units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes  sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes  i/o size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes  disk identifier: 0xb8ba0d59        device boot      start         end      blocks   id  system  /dev/sda1   *           1        3432    27567446+   5  extended  /dev/sda2            3433       28896   204539580    7  hpfs/ntfs  /dev/sda3           28897       30389    11978752    7  hpfs/ntfs  /dev/sda4           30389       30402      105656    c  w95 fat32 (lba)  /dev/sda5             128        3432    26547412+  83  linux  /dev/sda6               1         127     1020033   82  linux swap / solaris     partition table entries not in disk order  oj@oj-laptop:~$

partition table entries not in disk order, big concern? reason why windows isn't booting?

want know if use hp's recovery option restore windows, wipe out ubuntu? or work on c:\ drive? has 2 options, restore factory settings, or restore windows.

need someone's opinion has faced similar situation.

any appreciated =)
