I'm using the 20130207 install iso. This is to enable me to get a *REALLY* predictable NIC name, namely eth0, but I digress. The 2 warnings I get are...
1) > WARNING: GPT (GUID Partition Table) detected on '/dev/sda'! The util > fdisk doesn't support GPT. Use GNU Parted. I've repartitioned it 3 or 4 times, but it still comes up with that error when I fire up fdisk. Is it a problem, and if so, can I dd a few sectors to remove whatever it's complaining about? 2) > The device presents a logical sector size that is smaller than the > physical sector size. Aligning to a physical sector (or optimal I/O) > size boundary is recommended, or performance may be impacted. The fdisk "p" command gives the following output header > Disk /dev/sda: 1000.2 GB, 1000204886016 bytes > 255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 121601 cylinders, total 1953525168 sectors > Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes > Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes > I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes The fdisk default seems to be to start partition 1 at sector 2048. I don't know the hardware side of disks. Is that OK. -- Walter Dnes <[email protected]> I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
