Package: parted
Version: 1.6.21-1
Severity: important

hi

I have a USB memory stick; I have created one partition on it;
the current layout is 

# fdisk -l /dev/sda
Disk /dev/sda: 130 MB, 130809856 bytes
5 heads, 50 sectors/track, 1021 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 250 * 512 = 128000 bytes
   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sda1               1        1021      127600   83  Linux

I wanted to use parted to resize my partition
(to make room for a second crypto partition ) 
But if I try to use parted on it, I get

# parted /dev/sda
GNU Parted 1.6.21 with HFS shrink patch 16
....
Using /dev/sda
(parted) print
Disk geometry for /dev/sda: 0.000-124.750 megabytes
Disk label type: loop
Minor    Start       End     Filesystem  Flags
1          0.000    124.750  fat16
(parted)

This is very dangerous

a.

Hello,

This bug is very old and doesn't look to happen anymore since nobody
complained about them for a long time.

I'm closing this bug and if you can still reproduce it, please, reopen
it.
