Well, I wouldn't characterize it as broken. The flag in question is a new EFI flag that didn't exist previously. I have added support for it to the f16 version of parted (parted-2.3-8). It is named legacy_boot. I have not yet built a livecd-tools for f16 with support for it but you can do it manually. -- Brian C. Lane | Anaconda Team | IRC: bcl #anaconda | Port Orchard, WA (PST8PDT)
