BTW Brian, replying just to the bug email doesn't automatically forward the message to the original submitter. You either need to reply to -submitter@ for that, or reply-to-all to include their email directly.

Here's what you have to do: Don't panic! Your report should contain the version of this release (3.2) and the following history of commands you entered. Also include any additional information about your setup you consider important. Assertion (metadata_length > 0) at dos.c:2305 in function add_logical_part_metadata() failed.
