That's basically what I'm always doing, see below why. > you go: > pdisk /dev/blank-inito-disk > ... create partitions ... This is not possible since pdisk reports a incredible number of 512 bytes block for a 256M disk (the test drive), with a total free space of 126G!!! Here pdisk fail at creating the partition map, and at modifying it sjightly. I wish I could show you the output of pdisk, is it possible to redirect output on a file, still setting the keyborad as input ?
