Hi,

I am reading the code of filesystem in parted these days. And I have some question about this module.

1. Parted cannot just initialize filesystem on partition. But there is an option for the filesystem specifying? Why?
    Is this option redundant?

2. There is a filesystem module in parted. It is. If it is not used to specified the type of partition filesystem when partitioning. From my knowledge of the code. All the interfaces just are used to rescue partitions and disk sanity check (ped_disk_check). I can not find where is ped_disk_check is called. I just read its comment, "check the sanity of disk". But how is this function used? I found no clue of this. If this function is not used, which means filesystem module is only used for partition rescue.

So the filesystem in parted is only used to recognize filesystem types? Or I missed something? Any comments will be appreciated.

Thanks.
