Looks like this could possibly be a bug introduced by revision r37468 [1], which changed PED_SECTOR_SIZE to PED_SECTOR_SIZE_DEFAULT (partman-base 84). Looks like that change was made for compatibility with libparted 1.7. Whether changing it to dev->sector_size is correct depends of course on what the actual definition of PED_SECTOR_SIZE was in prior libparted versions. It could also be that the problem has always been there and that the use of PED_SECTOR_SIZE was always not correct (though maybe only in some places). This certainly needs to be checked very carefully. A good start could be to check whether the Sarge installer also has the bug as that has older versions of libparted and partman-base. Otavio: you did that change; any comments? Cheers, FJP [1] svn diff -r37467:37468 | less -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
