I used cfdisk and I'm sure that I allocated whole disk (I just deleted
remaining partition and created new one and just confirm size, because
it should take whole disk, and even if not, it souldn't create new
partition on empty disk beyond some other 'non-existing' partition so
I'm sure I made a good job of it) and saved changes (it prompted me for
writing new partition table). I haven't any /dev/sdb2, just /dev/sdb1.
It seems it is really bad situation for me :(. 

	So for future is there any way to log more detailed info about these
things (besides info about creating ext3 partition even info about size
of this partition)?

	Does kernel produce these messages?

	Should I run 'hdparm -z' after creating new patition in future?

	And because I don't want to tease you any more, please give me some
last solution what shoudl I do (forlorn hope).
