        With sudo parted -l you can see what partitions you have...

            @Martin111 you run adb shell in your computer, that gets you the device shell, and then you run that command @mihael has told you (sudo parted -l)

                @Martin111 no problem at all as long as you have adb tools installed in your computer

                    @Martin111 for Linux Mint I think the name of the packages are android-tools-adb and android-tools-fastboot. Install them as you usually do.

                    Note: it's good to have both adb & fastboot tools if you're going to play with UT 🙂

                        @Martin111 I've never experienced this. That's strange not to have partition 42.
                        I would you advise, to go back and install 15.04 with ubuntu-device-flash tool.

                        First go back to TWRP and wipe it all.
                        Then install ubuntu-touch recovery with fastboot.
                        Next step is to try to install 15.04 UT with ubuntu-device-flash tool (if you running Ubuntu or Ubuntu 16.04 based distro)
                        Then after installing of 15.04, try again check if your partition 42 appeared.
                        Or
                        Take a shortcut and just try to reinstall the same image you are currently running with ubuntu-device-flash tool. It might fix the isue with part.42.

                        if none of this helps, you'll probably need to go back to Android and start from there (wipe it clean ...)

                        Someone with 64Gb Pro 5 could help with posting his/her Pro 5 partition table???

                            @druk13 nice guide, yeah, in German, but still. Hopefully that helps those guys that need to repartition theirs Pro 5.
