Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: parted

Parted gives an error trying to read a partition table the fdisk can
read without problems. Below is the output of fdisk and parted. I will
also attach the partition table in raw form (dd if=/dev/hda
of=partitiontable.dat bs=512 count=1).

This bug also makes the dapper install show the disk as having no
partitions at all (I have not tried it with Edgy yet). I believe this is
related to bugs #54164 and #53881.
