  your personal opinions, if you would -- i'm working on some scripts
to do automated installs on a target board, currently based on
parted, but parted seems a bit dense at times, and awkward, and i'm
thinking of switching to sfdisk.

  for people who have done this sort of thing, do you have any strong
opinions either way of parted versus sfdisk? i realize that's not much
to go on, just curious about personal preferences, and why.
