Yep, same issue for me. Gnu-fdisk was the reason for the failure. Revert to classic fdisk solves the problem. I installed it to have some functionality that classic fdisk lacked. Im not sure but maybe gnu-fdisk should use the alternative framework so one had to choose the deafult ? Or its just a bug in gnu-fdisk. I just checked and found bug 445304. I wrote a follow-up for his case as well. regards //Peter -- bitrunner 0708-460260 Andra Långgatan 28 41327 Göteborg Sweden _______________________________________________ debian-live-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/debian-live-devel
