Hi Jens,
Unfortunately, the "new" parted manual is NOT (yet) a replacement for
the old one. Will not be for some time.
Since Parted 2.x, there is a plan to move big parts of the former
content to the GNU Storage Guide.
As such, core parts of the new manual now contain references to a
non-existent GNU storage guide.
Parted documentation is a mess as it is. Yes, the old manual is not
up-to-date, but nobody is perfect.
It would get far worse (especially for the casual user) if the only
complete manual was deleted just because it's not up-to-date.
sidenote:
I had the pleasure of developing a script for auto-creating aligned RAID
volumes with GPT, md1.0, and LVM2 on top of each other.
It was hard and confusing enough to get it done with the old guide
available. Initial data gathering would've been a nightmare without it.
Regards,
Milan

Hi,
with a Google search I found
http://www.gnu.org/software/parted/manual/html_mono/parted.html
which is outdated since many years and even
http://www.gnu.org/software/parted/manual
no longer links to it. Remove it!
After reading more up-to-date docs it seems not much changed in the last 8
years (no more filesystems supported, ...)?
