This is the sanity check in cfdisk that's being tripped:
for (i = 0; i < num_parts && p_info[i].last_sector < first; i++);
if (i < num_parts && p_info[i].id != FREE_SPACE) {
if (last < p_info[i].first_sector)
*errmsg = _("logical partitions not in disk order");
else if (first + offset <= p_info[i].last_sector &&
p_info[i].first_sector + p_info[i].offset <= last)
*errmsg = _("logical partitions overlap");
else
/* the enlarged logical partition starts at the
partition table sector that defines it */
*errmsg = _("enlarged logical partitions overlap");
return -1;
}
I must admit that I'm finding this a bit inscrutable. It's either a bug
in libparted or in cfdisk, but I have no idea which. Opening two bug
tasks for that.
