Hello
Someone provided me with output for a parted v1.8.8 but the flags column looks
very strange:
[...] Flags
[...] , , , , , , , , , type=82, ,
[...] boot, , , , , , , , , type=83, ,
Can somebody else confirm this is really correct? In Volumes.pm for setup-
storage 1.5 there's an example for an even older parted 1.7.1 but the Flags
column looks like parted 2.x:
$ /sbin/parted -s /dev/hda unit B print
WARNING: You are not superuser. Watch out for permissions.
Disk /dev/hda: 80026361855B
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B

6 32212287488B 46212287487B 14000000000B ext3 primary
2 46212287488B 47212287999B 1000000512B linux-swap primary swap
4 47212288000B 80026361855B 32814073856B ext3 primary
Maybe it's kernel-related?
Or the above output is actually some other version?
Since FAI uses the parted provided by the NFS-root it's probably safe to
ignore this oddity.
@Thomas L: What do you think about changing 'parted' into 'parted >=2.0' in
the package dependencies for fai-setup-storage and ignore parted 1.x? Even
Ubuntu 10.04 was shipping with 2.2.
