Hi Bernd,
thank you for your work on FDISK!
Version 1.3.5 (unreleased)
--------------------------
- CRITICAL: Fix FDISK loading wrong head and sector values from MBR if
operating in LBA mode. The previous incorrect behaviuor was hardcoding
them to cylinder boundaries instead of calculating them from LBA address,
resulting in corrupt partition tables especially if used in combination
with other disk utilities.
- CRITICAL: Fix different calculation errors leading to overlapping
partitions, unnessessary free space between them, or partitions exceeding
the end of the disk.
- CRITICAL: Fix a bug resulting in detecting non-existant extra cylinders
if detection of extra cylinders is enabled.
Now I would like to know how long each of those bugs has been
in FDISK, can you see that in change logs or by comparing your
version to various older versions? It must have been ages :-o
Regards, Eric
PS: Interesting that Bing ChatGPT answers Aitor using his own
mails, does it at least include some thanks to the author? :-)
