the patch is able to create extended partitions, which do not have a file system (its for logical partitions). And parted can not create a ntfs file system. I dont think we disagree on that :-) I did some testing and parted creates a fat32 partition (unformatted, ie: no file system) when told to make a ntfs partition. Thats no problem as windows will ask what to do (when clicking on drive) because its unformatted. The ntfs option is in 1.6.22, and I think this behavior is what the parted developers intended. In short we can not use mkpartfs when creating extended or ntfs partitions. If we do, parted is a no-operation, and will not create the partition So, for extended or ntfs partitions, use mkpart, and parted will create the partition. This patch should be ready to go with later parted versions as they will correctly mark ntfs partitions as ntfs (This did work when we were using 1.7.1, I think) The alternative is to always use mkpart. This will do it for this release, as long as the user do not want a ready-to-go formatted fat32 partition (on the D: drive a an example). > > I guess that you want this to get in 47_rc4 and allow people to test it.
