"mkpart" will continue to accept its FS_TYPE argument. mkpart performs no FS-specific operation, so I see no down side. The alternative would be needlessly disruptive. I wrote the above, then read the end of your sentence: "decide on the partition type" but I couldn't make sense of that, since the partition type (when allowed) must be specified. There's nothing to decide about it. > Will that be changed to just specify the partition type > directly? _______________________________________________ parted-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/parted-devel
