[parted-devel] [PATCH 0/1] remove redundant flags from DosPartitionData

Hi,

here is a patch that removes the redundant flags from
DosPartitionData to resolve the problems mentioned in [1]. The
patch is on top of [2] but in general they are independent (only
one hunk with purely a comment fails).

One thing I'm not so sure of is whether removing most of the
hidden and lba handling from msdos_partition_set_system has any
consequences. I could not find one and all tests still work.

Thanks,
  Arvin
