I'll just keep shamelessly asking questions.
I'm stuck on an install, where parted has the partition information all
messed up, and dies.
Quesiton: Has anyone hand hacked the 'parted' portion of an install
scripts? Point me at a How-to?
Using Debian packages:
systemimager-boot-i386 3.2.3-6
systemimager-common 3.2.3-6
systemimager-server 3.2.3-6
At first, parted finds the size of the drive:
Gets 'Disk geometry for /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disk:
0.000-239372.437 megabytes
Then it intelligently creates the first partition:
Creating partition /dev/sda1
parted -s -- /dev/sda mkpart primary ext2 0 78
>From then on it it has the wrong numbers, and goes wonky:
Creating partition /dev/sda2
parted -s -- /dev/sda mkpart primary exst2 239369 239370
Warning: Unable too align partition properly. This probably
means that some other partitioning toll
generated an incorrect partition table, because it didn't
have the correct BIOS geometry. ...
Creating partition /dev/sda3
parted -s -- /dev/sda mkpart primary ext2 239371 239372
Warning: Unable too align partition properly. This probably
means that some other partitioning toll
generated an incorrect partition table, because it didn't
have the correct BIOS geometry. ...
Creating partition /dev/sda4
parted -s -- /dev/sda mkpart extended 239372 239368
Warning: Unable too align partition properly. This probably
means that some other partitioning toll
generated an incorrect partition table, because it didn't
have the correct BIOS geometry. ...
Error: Can't have the end before the start!
Killing off running processes.
