Elsukov Hi Andrey, I can understand that, but i would have thought that the deletion of the concerned partition was written preserving others??? something like: - read the gpt table - find the offset - zeroes the partition entry - rewrites the table? is not that logic? if it is not so, i does not understand this behaviour.
