one case where "access beyond end of device" can happen is this: You delete a partition on a disk where also other partitions are used (mounted, or used for swap). Then, without rebooting, you recreate the partition but not with _exactly_ the same starting and ending point (in this case, a ending point which is before the previous one) Again without rebooting, you start using the re-created partition. The kernel sitll has in memory (and in /proc/partitions) the OLD starting and ending points of the partition, so mkswap, mkfs*, whatever still use the "old geometry". Then you reboot, and at the reboot the kernel reads the new partition table ... -- Chi usa software non libero avvelena anche te. Digli di smettere.
