Fair enough - I think I originally commented here mainly to share my
information on how to fix such mangled partition tables - I don't recall ever
finding out which program caused the problem in the first place!

This has been fixed from gparted's perspective, as it now correctly
shows the parted error messages rather than pretending that the disk is
empty.
Fixing parted to allow you to ignore the error and proceed with trying
to repair it is a feature that still has not been implemented upstream.

Have anyone tried to compile parted 3.1 and see if problem affects 3.1

Cannot have overlapping partitions

I just encountered this problem orz.
Parted should mention much verbosely then giving a message (when the partition
don't actually "overlapped" but misassigned ID)

This happened to me, too. I first noticed it after upgrading, recently,
to Ubuntu 10.04 from 9.10. I decided I wanted to go from dual-boot (with
WinVista) to single-boot (Ubuntu 10.04 only). I opened GParted, and it
showed my disk, /dev/sda, as wholly "Unallocated Space." Same thing when
I tried bo

I ended up in a similar situation with a logical partition inexplicably
listed as primary instead, which was preventing me testing Wubi. No idea
how that happened, the only things that should have touched the
partition table on that disk are gparted and WinXP's installer.
Anyway, for anybody stumb
This is a bad resolution.
The bug is that gparted pretends I don't have a partition table when in
fact I do and it doesn't even warn me.
Its poor enough that gparted won't help me fix the problem (thats its
job, right) but unforgivable that it pretends that there's nothing
wrong.
I hada similar
Sam,
Thanks for the bug report. Since your bug report pertains to parted
reporting overlapping partitions, which actually happened (glad you
fixed it!), I believe this bug to be invalid. Saying that, if you could
remember back to April of 2007 ( :-P ) and what might have originally
caused your i
I think it was sfdisk that busted my partition table.
sfdisk -d output doesn't identify physiclal or logical partitions.
I think it assumkes the first 4 are physical and the remaining are logical.
I think I actually only had 3 physical partitions
Anyway I edited the output of sfdisk -d and shurnk
I see it.
Partition 4 really ought to be marked as logical, not primary.
I guess it ought to be partition 8
I'm sure I used to had a partition 8, no doubt some clever partition tool moved
it to 4.
I don't know what tool I can use to fix this, obviously not parted :-)
But the bug remains that gpa
