fdisk on Linux

fdisk -l only lists file systems in blocks(by cylinders or sectors), how can I get it in unit of MB?
Is there swapinfo equivalent on Linux?

Thanks,

The 'fdisk' command has no arguments to translate the block count into megabytes.

Probably the easiest way would be to use either 'df', or possibly 'cfdisk -Ps', and then parse the appropriate column...
