This is a confirmed bug in the kernel where it always sets the size of the extended partition to 2 sectors, even when the second sector is not there since it is the first sector of the logical partition. The BLKPG patch just causes the error to show up immediately instead of after a reboot, since without the patch BLKRRPART fails and the partition table is not read until reboot. _______________________________________________ parted-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/parted-devel
