The sector size on /dev/sda is 1024 bytes. Parted is known not to work properly with drives with sector sizes other than 512 bytes.

Hello,

 

I have a storage system and centos 4.2 running but :

 

address@hidden parted-1.6.25.1]# parted /dev/sda
                                                                         

 

You found a bug in GNU Parted.
This may have been fixed in the last version of GNU Parted that you can find at:
        http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/parted/
If this has not been fixed or if you don't know how to check, please email:
        address@hidden
or (preferably) file a bug report at:
        http://parted.alioth.debian.org/bugs/
Your report should contain the version of this release (1.6.25.1) along with the
following message and preferably additional information about your setup.
Refer to the web site of parted
        http://www.gnu.org/software/parted/parted.html
for more informations of what could be useful for bug submitting!

 

The sector size on /dev/sda is 1024 bytes.  Parted is known not to work properly with drives with sector sizes other than 512 bytes.

 

 

do you have any news when this will be supported or any workaround ?

 

many thanks
