to create a new
partition table. You'll need to have the start/end positions of the
relevant partitions from mac-fdisk handy, and set up the 'new' partitions
using exactly the same data. You might be able to omit the MacOS specific
stuff, but be warned that the partition numbering will be different
between the two tables then.

parted should indeed use names on Apple partitioned disks; LVM (from what

Hi,
This kernel panic happens on fast hardware just after the second sync()
following the ioctl() as Ethan wrote previously. I can reproduce the kernel
panic on two of my QuickSilver G4 dual 800 most of the time with vanilla
mac-fdisk.
I wrote a little test case that reproduces this kernel

kernel panics after writing the partition table are common, and not
really harmful (just annoying) its actually panicing when mac-fdisk
asks the kernel to reread the partition table. after a reboot t
somehow.
Open Firmware will still get yaboot from the partition and yaboot
can find the kernel and the ramdisk, but the kernel paniks, even
when trying the mount excatly the same root in the ramdisk.
