This is definitely an upstream problem. It looks like http://parted.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/trac.cgi/ticket/43. Also, it does say: Warning: Device /dev/sde has a logical sector size of 2048. Not all parts of GNU Parted support this at the moment, and the working code is HIGHLY EXPERIMENTAL. Since upstream's aware of the issue, we'll wait for them to patch it. Feel free to REOPEN this (or even just comment) if a patch is released or a newer parted version with this fixed. |
