Another way that I prefer is
sfdisk -l
It's output can be saved in a file and it can even make copies of things
(like partition tables) that can be fed back into it to recreate a disk
if the info gets wiped. "Man sfdisk" for some enjoyable reading... well,
for old farts like me that don't mind man pages for find, etc. ;-)
