Package: partman Severity: normal I saw this bug during an install to my dad's computer using d-i rc2 netinst. The Windows ME partition was vfat, and I resized it from 30 gb to 10 using partman. This seemed to fail, the size stayed 30, though there was no error message. I worked around it by running parted by hand and resizing the partition there, then restarting partman.
I see this in the partman log: parted_server: OUT: File system is reporting the free space as 1487592 clusters, not 1485984 clusters. I got the same message when running parted by hand, there it had a prompt and let me ignore the problem and continue. Everything seemed to work ok then. I'm attaching all the d-i install logs. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.27 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages partman depends on: pn archdetect Not found. pn di-utils-mapdevfs Not found. pn harddrive-detection Not found. ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-20 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libparted1.6-0 1.6.11-9 The GNU Parted disk partitioning s pn libparted1.6-udeb Not found. pn partman-partitioning Not found. pn partman-target Not found. -- see shy jo
