There was an issue brought up about fdisk which doesn't have an entry
in exec_attr.  I assume the intention was to not allow regular users to
use fdisk or maybe this is a bug.  One could call fdisk from format,
but I don't think that was a requirement to use fdisk.

I think parted and fdisk should be allowed for regular users since
these commands could be useful for removable media.  These commands can
be included with the File System Management profile and given 
appropriate privileges as suggested previously.

I'd like to get any comments to see if there should be a
reason that parted should follow fdisk permission handling or if the
case should continue with adding parted to the File System Management
profile with appropriate privileges.

Thanks,

Phi
