parted -s --print
Warning: Unable to align partition properly. This probably means that
another partitioning tool...
Disk geometry for /dev/scsi/host0/bus0/target0/lun0/disk:
0.000-239372.437 megabytes
Disk label type: msdos
Minor Start End Type Filesystem Flags
1 0.031 78.442 primary ext3
2 239359.087 239366.931 primary
3 239369.000 239370.000 primary
So can I hack the script some how to make it work?
A strange thing is that /etc/fstab on the image does not have a mount
for /dev/sda2, but screw up systemimager?
Could you send what your paritioning section looks like for comparison?
