Doesn't that mean the label-reading code is at fault? If you can point me to a stack trace, I'll take a look. Do you know how to reproduce the set-up on another system? Or can I get ssh access to your system? > ... Thanks for the details. BTW, if you keep that patch on stable-1.8.x, then you should call ped_disk_destroy when ped_disk_new succeeds, to avoid leaking. _______________________________________________ parted-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/parted-devel
