Hi folks, looking at #41577 I wonder if it would be possible to introduce a unit "aligned blocks" to create partitions with a proper alignement (using alignment_offset and optimal_io_size)?
# parted /dev/sda -a optimal : (parted) u s p Model: somedisk Disk /dev/sda: 500118192s Offset: 1536s Block size: 2048s : : (parted) mkpart root 0a 16383a (parted) p : Number Start End Size File system Name Flags 1 1536s 132607s 131072s root Just a suggestion, of course. Regards Harri
