GNU parted is not capable of moving a partition into a position that overlaps with the original, so I suspect you are using "gparted", a different tool, that *is* capable of doing what you describe. It just so happens that Curtis Gedak described gparted's move algorithm just a couple weeks ago: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnu.parted.devel/3301/focus=3304 > Which recovery procedure is the best? I'd start by trying to determine how far the move proceeded before it was interrupted. You'll probably have to write code to compare src/dest sectors until you find a pair that differs. Once you know that, you may be able to complete the task. _______________________________________________ parted-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/parted-devel
