That does not appear to be util-linux''s fdisk. What does dpkg -S `which fdisk` show? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1288564 Title: [beta1] tool fdisk do not support

So on ppc, fdisk is provided by the mac-fdisk package, which appears to be long unmaintained and falling apart. It should probably be removed as soon as we finally update util-linux, which I believe now has mac partition table support upstream. In the mean time, use parted rather than fdisk.

This is very strange.. fdisk has defaulted to using sectors rather than the long obsolete/nonsense cylinders for quite some time now. Please run fdisk -v and post the output. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in
