-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi,
I fear I need some help with Parted. When trying to use Parted with with my external hard disk it's two partitions are not detected, instead a message about a third partition is printed: > # parted /dev/sdc unit s print > No Implementation: Partition 3 isn't aligned to cylinder boundaries. This is > still unsupported. If I remember correctly the disk was partitioned using cfdisk, using byte values (instead of sectors) to specify the partition sizes. fdisk reports the following layout: > # fdisk -l -u /dev/sdc > > Disk /dev/sdc: 1000.2 GB, 1000204886016 bytes > 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 121601 cylinders, total 1953525168 sectors > Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes > Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes > I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes > Disk identifier: 0x14762e21 > > Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System > /dev/sdc1 63 976559219 488279578+ 83 Linux > /dev/sdc2 976559220 1953520064 488480422+ 83 Linux The first partition contains a XFS, the second one a JFS filesystem. If my calculation is right at least the first partition should be aligned to cylinder boundaries, but temporarily deleting the second partition did not help either. Any hint why Parted doesn't see those partitions?
