Hi, > su -c 'parted --list /dev/sdb' (/dev/sdb is thumb drive} > lists partitions from /dev/sda 9system drive) > even when /dev/sdb doesn't exist!
man parted says -l, --list lists partition layout on all block devices and so it works for me. If i use --list, i get all drives listed. If i want /dev/sdb alone, i have to do parted /dev/sdb print Have a nice day :) Thomas
