Package: util-linux Version: 2.17.2-9 File: /sbin/cfdisk Severity: normal The cfdisk program in Debian/Squeeze segfaults when i try to write a new partition table to a RAID disk. The disk size is 7 809 794 048 kilobytes, and I try to create a LVM (8e) primary partition filling the entire disk. The created partition end up being only 1 367 339 929 kilobytes. When I ask cfdisk to create it, its partition view show the new partition filling the entire disk. But when I ask it to write the partition table, it segfaults. I run cfdisk with the nb_NO.UTF-8 locale, and seeing the valgrind report I suspect this might be related.
