Same issue in 1.8.6. The -s option used to just it do it and not ask any questions.
wget http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/parted/parted-1.8.6.tar.bz2 tar -jxvpf parted-1.8.6.tar.bz2 cd parted-1,8.6/ ./configure make export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=./libparted/.libs ./parted/parted -s /dev/hdc "mklabel msdos \ mkpart primary 0 380 \ mkpart primary 380 420 \ mkpart primary 420 -0" Warning: The existing disk label on /dev/hdc will be destroyed and all data on this disk will be lost. Do you want to continue?
