Title:
sfdisk doesn't accept blank for start value with -uS
Status in util-linux package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Binary package hint: util-linux
Release: 8.10
util-linux: 2.14-1ubuntu2
According to the man-page this should work:
sfdisk -uS /dev/sdb << EOF
63,546147,82,-
,512000
EOF
I got these values by creating the 256MB partition in fdisk, then list the
values with sfdisk -l /dev/sdb and then deleting all partitions again in fdisk.
The first line creates a 256MB Swap partition as /dev/sdb1. The second line
should create a partition 512000 sectors large right behind that. The problem
is that
,<Size>
isn't being accepted, the problem seems to be omitting the starting point.
The first line on it's own works.
Only when I enter the correct starting point (546210) at the beginning of the
second line it works.
The problem seems to be -uS specific, -uM works.
