Hello list: Just a heads up on what is going on with parted for f12. Going to upgrade to the "not yet released" parted version (1.9.0). Things to highlight: 1. There is a patch to turn off the cylinder alignment crap on msdos type labels. To control the flag use ped_disk_align_to_cylinders_toggle() to query the flag use ped_disk_align_to_cylinders_on(), the flag is on by default so we can test the behavior. 2. There are a lot of bugfixes for the new version. I removed the no-replace-gpt label patch that we had in fedora. There is a patch in the new release that takes care of this issue, but it might act differently then what we had, so if there is any problem, scream :) 3. The build is here: http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1429025 Upstream has not released yet. But I'll probalby put the new parted in soonish, as current master is probably going to be the release. The idea is to start debuggin early. Note that we also need some additional cycles to get the "dasd duplicate" feature in. So If there is a new parted in development it should change slightly. Questions, suggestions?
