Patric,
fdisk (you have to start using -cul instead of -l) reports what-ever the
partition table contains. It's utterly ignorant to what's on the actual
partition. So simply login with fdisk, do a "t" and change the partition
type to what-ever you want. 

Be aware that linux ignores those types - they have absolutely no impact
on how your system works.

Regards
