hi guys,
i want to create a partition on my disk using parted. the new partition
will fill all remain space on the disk. as man page said, i can use
negative number as argument to count from end of the disk.
but i found parted doesn't work. following is the command i tried:
# parted -s /dev/sdb mkpart extended 2048M '-1s'
parted: invalid option -- 1
# parted -s /dev/sdb mkpart extended 2048M '\-1s'
Error: " 1s" has invalid syntax for locations.
if in interactive mode, the above command works. but i need to script
it. so is it a bug or it's work-aroundable?
thanks!
