--- Begin Message ---Package: gnu-fdisk Version: 1.0-1 Severity: normal Here is a fragment of a partition table created with util-linux fdisk: $ fdisk.distrib -l -u /dev/hda Disk /dev/hda: 80.0 GB, 80026361856 bytes 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 9729 cylinders, total 156301488 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0x0611c023 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/hda1 63 27358694 13679316 83 Linux /dev/hda2 27358695 156296384 64468845 5 Extended /dev/hda5 27358758 46909799 9775521 83 Linux /dev/hda6 46909863 109824423 31457280+ 83 Linux [...] Starting gnu-fdisk as fdisk, removing hda6 and recreating it causes the start of this partition to move back to 46909801 which obviously makes the filesystem there unmountable. It is unnoticeable in fdisk when cylinders are the units, since both starts display as cylinder 2921. While advanced resize functions in gnu-fdisk should make such delete/create cycles mostly unnecessary, people (read 'I') tend to do things the old way sometimes, and this result was very surprising from a command run as fdisk. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (500, 'experimental'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-2-k7 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=pl_PL, LC_CTYPE=pl_PL (charmap=ISO-8859-2) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages gnu-fdisk depends on: ii libc6 2.6.1-4 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libncurses5 5.6+20070908-1 Shared libraries for terminal hand ii libparted1.7-1 1.7.1-5.1 The GNU Parted disk partitioning s ii libuuid1 1.40.2-1 universally unique id library gnu-fdisk recommends no packages. -- Michał Politowski Talking has been known to lead to communication if practiced carelessly.
