Re: Unable to align partition properly

[Morten Welinder]

   Is there an ext2 file system on it?  (i.e. did you run mke2fs?)
   Parted doesn't display the "partition type"... it displays the
   detected file system.

Hmm...  I though I made sure the fdisk ouptut showed that, but yes,
there is an ext2 fs on minor 1 and it is not being detected by
parted.  fdisk (linux/dos) and lilo are happy with it.
