Documentation for GPT 1.0.10 sgdisk --new=partnum:start:end states "a start or end value of 0 specifies the default value, which is the start of the largest available block for the start sector and the end of the same block for the end sector." In sgdisk 1.0.9, this zero could be given with units, e.g. "+0M", e.g. sgdisk --new=7:+0M:+32M "/dev/${DEVICE}" In sgdisk 1.0.10 (on arm64 or x86-64 linux), presence of the unit breaks the zero-parsing, and sgdisk tries to start the new partition at the end...

That sort of conversion is certainly possible, but would add code complexity that I'd prefer to avoid. That said, I'm willing to consider a patch/merge request; but at the moment I'm pretty busy with other matters, so I don't have much time to devote to this issue.

Hello, Regarding the change to allow decimal formatting https://sourceforge.net/p/gptfdisk/code/ci/e1cc654ef71996d836c5d051278130f50f768f84 I think if a user inputs +9.5GB for the end sector, it would be slightly confusing to silently drop the .5GB and just provide 9GB. I understand this is a limitation of GPT fdisk only allowing integers. Could we maybe convert 9.5G to 9500MB to allow decimals in GB? I'd imagine this decimal trickery would only be available for GB, TB, PT, and not MB. Thanks, -...

Hello! I have questions about Atari TOS partitions. 1. Why map "Atari TOS basic data" from GUID 734E5AFE-F61A-11E6-BC64-92361F002671 to MBR A2? gptfdisk is the only source I could find that has MBR partition type A2 mapped to Atari TOS (indirectly: in parttypes.cc, line 359), so A2 would be the MBR type for Atari TOS partitions. Other sources for MBR types (that don't list Atari) are e.g. https://www.win.tue.nl/~aeb/partitions/partition_types-1.html and https://thestarman.pcministry.com/asm/mbr/PartTypes.htm....

I believe that's aready in Administrator mode, so it's decisive the point of problem is in opening storage logically IMHO good, very useful to update readme to be more systematic with informative dependency both build time and mainly run time, and other definitive information

quite a lot of embedded devices such as routers run OpenWrt, a widely used linux distro. most of these devices relay on MTD devices, but some use block devices such as eMMCs. devices using eMMCs tend to use GPT partitioning. it is extremely common to find MTD-based OpenWrt devices in which partitions physically overlap (in fact, it is quite hard to find devices that do not do this). a very common setup involves a partition for the linux kernel and a partition for an immutable (squashfs) OS image....

We had a hard time investigating the following error: # sgdisk -e image.img ... Warning! Secondary partition table overlaps the last partition by 2014 blocks! Try reducing the partition table size by 8056 entries. (Use the 's' item on the experts' menu.) Aborting write of new partition table. The image is sized to cover the end of the last partition + 34 sectors for the backup GPT, which contains the default 128 entries and hence has the default size of 32 sectors + header. The overlap of 2014 blocks...

Hi, I'm following up on a bug in Ubuntu to apply an upstream commit to fix a bug. It would be nice for a new release to happen so that way Debian could also pick it up, and we don't have to manually maintain the patch.

Thanks for your reply! It's been a while since I posted this, and even longer since I wrote the code, so apologies if I miss something: Do such checks exist for (-)j / --move-main-table=sector? If so (and I missed to copy/adjust them), then that's what should be done, yes. If not, then: is moving the backup table more obscure / causing more potential harm than moving the main table? Either way gdisk reports the limited range "usable sectors" (and moving either table does require entering the expert...

Thanks for the submission; however, I see two problems with it as-is: I don't see an obvious way to detect when the backup partition table is in an odd location. When parted is fed a partition table that's been moved by your code, for instance, it warns that this has been done and offers to fix it. Currently, gdisk includes no such checks, so it won't detect such a move, even though improper use of the facility might result in severely reduced available disk space. I suggest adding a check to the...

The fact that they motivate individuals to learn new topics is one of the key advantages of golf quires. People can increase their knowledge and learn about topics in which they may not have previously been interested by responding to questions on a variety of topics. Students can benefit the most from this since it can help them develop their critical thinking abilities and increase their general awareness of many disciplines.

I want to list EFI gdisk as an option in grub. Usually you should be able to load a *.efi module from GRUB using chainloader, however this is not working and instead I get an error. I am able to load e.g. the UefiShellX64.efi UEFI shell using chainloader but replacing UefiShellX64.efi with gdisk_x64.efi doesn't work. I note that the instructions say that this needs to be renamed to BOOTx64.EFI however https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/GPT_fdisk#gdisk_EFI_application suggests that you should be able...

Thanks for the submission; however, it's not acceptable as-is. It works fine for gdisk, but the cgdisk, the prompt is ugly and accepts no input, thus freezing the program; and it breaks the flow in the command-line, non-interactive sgdisk with an unacceptable prompt. You'll need to change the structure of the prompting for each program (although it's possible you could create one to work for both cgdisk and gdisk and another for sgdisk). For sgdisk in particular, you'll need to add a new command-line...

Trivia quizzes and answers are a popular form of entertainment that test a person's knowledge on a wide range of topics. They can be found in various formats, such as board games, television shows, and online platforms. One of the main benefits of trivia quizzes is that they encourage people to learn new things. By answering questions on a variety of subjects, people can expand their knowledge and learn about subjects they may not have been interested in previously. This can be especially useful...

Past papers, also known as previous year papers or model papers, are sample tests or practice materials that contain questions and answers from previous years' exams. They are often used as a study aid for students preparing for exams, as they provide an opportunity to familiarize oneself with the format, style, and difficulty level of the exam. Past papers can be useful for a number of reasons. First and foremost, they can help students understand the types of questions that are likely to be asked...

Hi, I use GPT fdisk a lot to process image files (mostly sgdisk for EFI boot images) on Linux server installations. This works perfectly beside one downer DiskIO::DiskSync() in diskio-unix.cc, which takes ages on systems doing heavy block I/O concurrently to gdisk. This was already reported by Jim Estes in https://sourceforge.net/p/gptfdisk/discussion/939590/thread/dbd6166b/. Is there any chance to get a patch accepted that renders sync() optional? Any hints how to approach this or what to avoid...

Please add percent unit (%) for create a new partition. sgdisk -n 1:0:50% -n 2:0:0 Very often we want to split the disk in half. Now you have to recalculate it manually. Support in gdisk for generating UUID for /var partition using systemd machineid UUID. If we change the type to a Linux /var partition, it should at least display the UUID that should be set on this machine to be valid for the current machineid. Support in sgdisk would also be usefulL: sgdisk -t 4:8310 -u 4:auto (auto works only if...
