Is a new release planned, and if so when? There must be a release soonish, we do have to solve the "parted only handles sector sizes of 512 bytes" thing first. Which means get some testing done and resolve any found issues. Guess ATM everybody else is stuck on some other project and has not moved forward with any of this. I know parted has been on my todo postits on my computer for some time :( A proposal for the ext4 filesystem detection would be great. and remember that we are trying to move away from fs handling (we are not very good at it anyway). So I guess the ext4 detection would be one of the most important issues to resolve in parted. > > Regards, > Curtis Gedak > > _______________________________________________ > parted-devel mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/parted-devel -- Joel Andres Granados Red Hat / Brno Czech Republic _______________________________________________ parted-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/parted-devel
