#289 Cannot create new partitions

[Anonymous]

I cannot create new partitions with 0.92 on RedHat 7.1

The script is getting cylinders and heads mixed up.

The main screen of "Partitions on Local Disks" says I
have a hard drive of only 63 cylinders but fdisk says
I have 63 heads and 1106 cylinders.

Because the incorrect geometry of the drive is
detected, I cannot create any additional partitions
using webmin. Have to use fdisk.

Webmin may be parsing the output of fdisk wrongly
on your system. Could you update this bug reporting with
the output of fdisk -l on your system?
