Hi, on GPT its from the parted output indistinguishably whether the partition type is "Linux filesystem" or some type parted does not know, e.g. "Ceph Journal". Below is the output of fdisk and parted to show the problem.
Shouldn't there be a flag "linux" to make this clear? Regards, Arvin Output for type "Ceph Journal": # fdisk /dev/sdb -l Disk /dev/sdb: 76.3 GiB, 81964302336 bytes, 160086528 sectors Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disklabel type: gpt Disk identifier: ECA9C49C-BF73-4236-9404-A10E741AB00E Device Start End Sectors Size Type /dev/sdb1 2048 16009215 16007168 7.6G Ceph Journal # parted /dev/sdb print Model: Maxtor 6 Y080L0 (scsi) Disk /dev/sdb: 82.0GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: gpt Disk Flags: Number Start End Size File system Name Flags 1 1049kB 8197MB 8196MB Output for "Linux filesystem": # fdisk /dev/sdb -l Disk /dev/sdb: 76.3 GiB, 81964302336 bytes, 160086528 sectors Units: sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disklabel type: gpt Disk identifier: ECA9C49C-BF73-4236-9404-A10E741AB00E Device Start End Sectors Size Type /dev/sdb1 2048 16009215 16007168 7.6G Linux filesystem thalassa:~ # parted /dev/sdb print Model: Maxtor 6 Y080L0 (scsi) Disk /dev/sdb: 82.0GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: gpt Disk Flags: Number Start End Size File system Name Flags 1 1049kB 8197MB 8196MB -- Arvin Schnell, <aschn...@suse.com> Senior Software Engineer, Research & Development SUSE Linux GmbH, GF: Felix Imendörffer, Jane Smithard, Graham Norton, HRB 21284 (AG Nürnberg) Maxfeldstraße 5 90409 Nürnberg Germany
