Invalid partition table - recursive partition

[Steffen Dienst]

Hi,

sorry, but I couldn't find any help in archived mails of this list. I seem  
to have some serious problem with my partition. Parted gives me the  
following error: "Invalid partition table - recursive partition". I have 3  
primary partitions (win, linux, swap) and one extended which includes  
another linux partition. Parted seems to just see the first four  
partitions, not the fifth one.
The output of "sfdisk -dx /dev/hdb" is:

# Partitionstabelle von /dev/hdb
unit: sectors

/dev/hdb1 : start=       63, size=165887127, Id= 7
/dev/hdb2 : start=165887190, size=  4192965, Id=82
/dev/hdb3 : start=170080155, size= 31455270, Id=83
/dev/hdb4 : start=201535425, size=111041280, Id= f

/dev/hdb5 : start=201535425, size= 41945715, Id=83
    -     : start=201535425, size=        0, Id= 0
    -     : start=201535425, size=        0, Id= 0
    -     : start=201535425, size=        0, Id= 0

Thanks for the help.
