Systemimager does this fine, but it is listed as a current limitation of SALI on the webpage (https://subtrac.sara.nl/oss/sali). > > Any ideas why parted is choking when I run the script manually?

I ended up writing a custom script using the newer 'partition' command, since I decided to support ext4 and grub2 as well. -- Tristam MacDonald http://swiftcoder.wordpress.com Sent from my iPad > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ This SF.net email is sponsored by Make an app they can't live without Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge http://p.sf.net/sfu/RIM-dev2dev _______________________________________________ sisuite-users mailing list sisuite-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/sisuite-users
