Hi Bernie, Thank you for the report. Two sectors (1KB) is almost enough. If you could send a little more, I'll take a look. If there are 4 partitions or fewer, 1.5KB is enough. If you have more than 4 partitions, then you might as well send sectors (17KB) worth. _______________________________________________ bug-parted mailing list bug-parted@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-parted
