Windows 7 parition is not recognized by Disk Utility

Here's the output from FDISK:

Disk: /dev/disk0 geometry: 60801/255/63 [976773168 sectors]

Shouldn't it recognize that the last two partitions are NTFS? In addition, /dev/disk0s3 seems to represent BOTH NTFS partitions... likely why OS X can't read it properly.

#3 is the WinRE partition that Windows 7 forces you to create.
#4 is the full NTFS partition containing Windows 7.

Anyone else had this issue or know how to fix it?

Try installing NTFS-3G and see what you get

I've already done that and I still don't see it. I've even tried mounting /dev/disk0s3 with ntfs-3g through the terminal.

Sorry, but based on your original post I am not really sure of the question

Can you give another explanation of your issue?
Maybe even a screen shot of what you are seeing in Disk Utility?

I think he's trying to see if the kernel will recognize the Windows partition.

You said you tried the fdisk command. How about trying the df command? The df command will display disk space that's free, so it might recognize the Windows partition.

"df: /dev/disk0: Raw devices not supported"
