[Parted-maintainers] Bug#328694: acknowledged by developer (Bug#328694: fixed in parted 1.6.24-3)

[Frans Pop]

Hi Otavio,

I can now confirm that partman shows existing partitions again :-)
Thanks for fixing it so quickly.


The only thing I was wondering about from the patch

+-      disk_data->length = block * PED_BE16_TO_CPU(label->ncyl);
++      disk_data->length = block * disk->dev->bios_geom.cylinders;

is, shouldn't label->ncyl also contain the correct value? Isn't that the 
real error?

Especially as label->partitions[i].num_sectors a few lines below 
apparently does contain the correct number. Or should that value be 
doubted as well?

Cheers,
Frans
