Assertion ((C * heads + H) * sectors + S == A) at ../../libparted/disk_dos.c:586 in function probe_partition_for_geom() failed.
I get this error from a new USB thumb drive from Astone, 512MB. If I run fdisk on the device and clear all partition tables with the 'o' command, parted works fine. It seems this batch of sticks we have can all cause this problem. I have a gzipped dd of the entire stick that causes the error, partition tables and all, but was unable to email it through.
