Where did you get a version of cfdisk that is installable on normal

Umm, it is on my old lenny box and it is on my new squeeze box. I didn't
do anything special to install it. Most installs that I do are minimal
base installs to start with.
Thanks for that. It's on my Lenny and Squeeze boxes too.... as part of
util-linux
My mistake - I just did a dpkg --get-selections, apt-cache search and:-
http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=cfdisk&searchon=names&suite=all§ion=all&sourceid=mozilla-search
which is where I got the udeb bit from, and the link to the:-
http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/cfdisk-udeb
which gave the "Warning: This package is intended for the use in
building debian-installer images only. Do not install it on a normal
Debian system."
Does cfdisk do a better job of handling 4K sectors than fdisk - I was
unable to find anything to that effect??
(again, my preference is parted) - the use cfdisk because fdisk + GPD =
problem was not my post (and the OP was not using GPD)
Cheers
