Package: util-linux Version: 2.12r-19etch1 Severity: normal
I would like to view/edit dos/windows partitions on an external USB drive. A default powerpc debian install installs the mac-fdisk package to supply the fdisk command. However, mac-fdisk only supports apple partition maps. There doesn't seem to be any way to install the 'regular' fdisk on the powerpc architecture. While I understand that mac-fdisk should be the default /sbin/fdisk on this architecture, it would be nice if the util-linux fdisk was also provided under a different name. Thanks.
