Hi Matthew: You have a point here. What still bothers me is that the user will constantly have to tell parted. "yes, I know that the gpt table is not where its suppose to be, ignore please"
I confess that I could not think of a good solution for this issue of the top of my head. The only thing I could think of is to "fix" the position of the table without erasing the previous one. But then you would have problems with the synchronization of the three. You may also have an issue of overlapping lists. Regards. ----- "Matthew S.
