Subject: fdisk lacks msdos partition support in gpt mode
Date: Thu, 24 Oct 2013 18:58:10 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20131024165810.GA26722@aepfle.de> (raw)
The guys to decided to use gpt labels even on legacy systems. That
happens to work. But when it breaks its now difficult to see whats
actually on disk. Now that fdisk from util-linux 2.23.2 has gpt support
its unable to print the msdos partition table.
It would be nice if fdisk gets some do-it-anyway flag to ignore gpt for
a moment and at least dump such content.
Thanks.
Olaf
