Re: [opensuse] gparted grashing on gpt partition creation opensuse 11.0

Hi Petr,

Hi, you have to do it this way:

# parted /dev/hdd GNU Parted 1.8.8 Using /dev/hdd Welcome to GNU Parted! Type 'help' to view a list of commands. (parted) mklabel Warning: The existing disk label on /dev/hdd will be destroyed and all data on this disk will be lost. Do you want to continue? Yes/No? yes New disk label type? [gpt]? gpt (parted) quit Information: You may need to update /etc/fstab.

So type 'mklabel' without any arguments and then specify that you want the label to be 'gpt'. Not very intuitive...

HTH

That seems to have worked! I never would have guessed to do that... Vahe -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
