Hi, Thanks for the excellent description. This is the first time I've seen someone using a non-standard location for the header. parted makes some assumptions, as you can see, and has hard-coded those into its pmbr write code.
I'll have to think about this, but at the moment there is no way to work around this other than not using parted on these disk. Thanks, Brian -- Brian C. Lane (PST8PDT) - weldr.io - lorax - parted - pykickstart
