Hello, parted 1.8.6 is giving me grief.
I have two HD's without any fancy things like RAID or LVN. Here is what parted-1.8.6 is coming up when I try to examine: GNU Parted 1.8.6 Using /dev/hdc Welcome to GNU Parted! Type 'help' to view a list of commands. (parted) p Error: Unable to open /dev/hdc - unrecognised disk label. (parted) now running parted 1.7.0rc5 GNU Parted 1.7.0rc5 Using /dev/hdc Welcome to GNU Parted! Type 'help' to view a list of commands.

I had problems with earlier 1.8 - variants. Any pointers?
