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 ....
