Guys,
I am trying to create a partition using parted. I give the following
command to create the first partition on my disk.
(parted) mkpart primary ext2 0 1000
It happily creates the partition even if I give starting sector number to be 0.
But, as per my limited knowledege, we have a fake MBR on sector 0 and then the
GPT partition table at sector 1. Now, if I give the start sector to be 0 (in my
command to create a partition), won't it overwrite the partition table itself,
when I create the filesysetm and do IOs on this partition?
Also, we don't have any field "partition number" in any of the command. Suppose
if I want to create partition number 3, without having partition 1 and 2, how
it can be done using parted?
thanks a lot for any help in advance.
