Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
In KNOPPIX 9.1 I use parted version 3.4
I am trying to repair the USB stick
SanDisk Cruzer Glide
SDCZ60-256G-B35
which was destoyed by partclone.
Gparted shows red warnigs, that no filesystem can be found.
With Gparted I have often deleted the partition(s) and created various new
patitions with partition tables msdos and gpt.
Yet not tried ntfs until yet.
Until yet all was of no help.
Now I am going on to make partitioning to ntfs and exfat.
For this I am now using the tool parted.
In the moment the non-working on the USB stick has the partition table msdos.
For the parted command "mkpart" the documentation "info parted" says:
PART-TYPE is one of "primary", "extended" or "logical", and may be
specified only with "msdos" or "dvh" partition tables.
Now the problem is:
I intend to mkpart "ntfs",
but nevertheless parted insists to type "primary".
Without giving "primary" I cannot progress, and with giving "primary" an
error message is produced.
This is true for interactive operation as well as for non-interactive.
There is no way to use parted.
You want to receive with each bug report the output of the parted command
parted /dev/sdp unit s print free
(I have tried sdp and sdp1)
The output I cite here:
+++++
Model: SanDisk Cruzer Glide (scsi)
Disk /dev/sdp: 487391232s
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/513B
Partition Table: msdos
