RHBA-2007:0797 - Bug Fix Advisory
Synopsis
parted bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Red Hat Insights patch analysis
Identify and remediate systems affected by this advisory.
Topic
Updated parted packages that fix various bugs are now available.
Description
The GNU Parted program allows you to create, destroy, resize, move, and
copy hard disk partitions. Parted can be used for creating space for new
operating systems, reorganizing disk usage, and copying data to new hard
disks.
Bugs fixed in these updated packages include:
- no longer crashes with very large disks (multiple terabytes) when the
number of heads returned is zero.
- an error occurred when attempting to create a partition with the
hardware sector alignment of a partition other than a 512 bytes sized
logical sector. It is now possible to create hardware sector aligned
partitions on disks with logical sector sizes other than 512 bytes.
Users are advised to upgrade to these updated parted packages, which
resolve these issues.
Solution
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
This update is available via Red Hat Network. Details on how to use
