Hello,
I'm using FAI to automatically install machines. I'm getting the
above parted error in the following situation.
FAI is run in a Xen domU calling parted on a LVM volume. I also get
this error when parted is called on a iscsi lun. In both cases the
lun is given to the virtual machine as a the device '/dev/sda'.
I have this problem with versions 1.8.8.git.2008.03.24-11.1 and 1.9.0.
(Please, notice the -s option)
r...@shibidp1:/# parted -s /dev/sda unit TiB print
Error: Error initialising SCSI device /dev/sda - Invalid argument
(Please, notice that the -s option is not given)
r...@shibidp1:/# parted /dev/sda unit TiB print
Error: Error initialising SCSI device /dev/sda - Invalid argument
Ignore/Cancel? I
Model: (null) (scsi)
Disk /dev/sda: 0.01TiB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: msdos
Number Start End Size Type File system Flags
1 0.00TiB 0.01TiB 0.01TiB primary boot
2 0.01TiB 0.01TiB 0.00TiB primary
If I then quiet parted I get
*** glibc detected *** parted: double free or corruption (out):
0x00007efff7afcab0 ***
That is then only with parted 1.8.8.git.2008.03.24-11.1.
So to conclude:
1) In my case, doing things with -s enabled doesn't work (either versions)
2) I get ' double free or corruption ' in the Debian Stable version.
All help would be appreciated as this is blocking the installation of
virtual machines.
