4.218. parted
Updated parted packages that fix three bugs and add one enhancement are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
The parted packages allow you to create, destroy, resize, move, and copy hard disk partitions. The parted program can be used for creating space for new operating systems, reorganizing disk usage, and copying data to new hard disks.
Bug Fixes
- BZ#665496
- Prior to this update, parted incorrectly calculated the position of the new partition when partitions of 1 or smaller units (eg. 1GB, 0.5GB) were created. As a result, only an extremely small partition was created. This update fixes the snap problem for 1 unit and no longer allows defining units less than 1. The value 0 is still allowed when specifying the start of the device. The next smaller units should be used instead of a value smaller than 1. eg. Use 500MB instead of 0.5GB.
- BZ#692562
- Prior to this update, a cylinder-head-sector (CHS) value was, under certain circumstances, especially with factory partitioned USB drives, not found. As a result, parted threw an assertion when attempting to guess the CHS used to create a partition table, even though it was safe to continue without the CHS information. This update no longer throws an assertion when it cannot guess the CHS values used to create a partition table.
- BZ#746098
- Prior to this update, several tests of the parted test suite failed when running as root on IBM System z and 64-bit PowerPCs. With this update, the tests run as expected.
Enhancement
- BZ#711148
- GPT disklabels now support the legacy_boot flag to allow bootloaders such as syslinux's hybrid gptmbr to be used on BIOS and EFI systems. It is set with the set command in parted.
All parted users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which fix these bugs and add this enhancement.
