I guess it wouldn't be a bad thing to only change the end sector if that's the only thing you tried to do. I just wonder what constraints the end sector should have in that case, looking at the bug report, the end cylinder also seem to be a multiple of 2048 - 1, so it seem to me that Microsoft is using 2048 sectors/track instead of 63. Vista might not like it that we let the partition stop on a sector that's a multiple of 63 - 1, and might be unable to use the last "track". I think the best thing we can do is make it think parted think that there are 2048 sectors/track. Kurt -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
