	Be glad to.  Here is the list.  I assume size of partitions 
aren't important.  Here are all the types and titles as is important

Apple_partition_map
Apple_Driver43
Apple_HFS
Apple_HFS
Apple_HFS
Apple_HFS
Apple_HFS
Apple_UNIX_SVR2 (A/UX Root&Usr slice 0) (Named: A/UX Root)
Apple_UNIX_SVR2 (A/UX Swap slice 1) (Named: Swap)
Apple_Free

As you can see, the root partition appears on my partition map (assuming 
my partitioning program is dispalying ALL the partitions) as 8th, and the 
swap space as 9th. Is THIS the problem? I want to know before I start 
re-arranging my partitions.  Thanks for your help.
