I am using the following command to partition a device from 0 to 100 MB *$ parted -d /dev/sda mkpart p 0 100* and with the help print option i am printing the partition table. The o/p of $*parted -s /dev/sda print* is varying from one arch to another arch. The o/p of *$parted -s /dev/sda print* on i386 machine Disk geometry for /dev/sda: 0kB - 73GB Disk label type: msdos Number Start End Size Type File system Flags 1 1kB 100MB 100MB primary reiserfs type=83 The o/p of *$parted -s /dev/sda print* on i386 machine Disk geometry for /dev/sda: 0kB - 7516MB Disk label type: gpt Number Start End Size File system Name Flags 1 17kB 100MB 100MB *My question is, on ia 64 arch why parted command is leaving first 17 kB of the device?* Your help is appreciated Regards, Masthan ------=_Part_38141_5158253.1155190399983 Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline <div> </div> <div>Hi All,</div> <div> </div> <div>On SLES 10 , I am using parted command to partition a device but the behaviour of parted command is varying from one Archetecture to another archtecture.</div> <div> </div> <div>I am using the following command to partition a device from 0 to 100 MB</div> <div> </div> <div><strong><em>$ parted -d /dev/sda mkpart p 0 100</em></strong></div> <div> </div> <div>and with the help print option i am printing the partition table.
