Sarah: Thanks for this. It turns out that this iPod disk is laid out
using GPT (a more modern partition table format), and so the 512 bytes I
asked for don't cover the whole partition table. Sorry about this. Could
you repeat the previous directions, but with the following command
instead:
sudo
The problem continues with Ubuntu Intrepid, parted (GNU parted) 1.8.9

Here's the requested output of my iPod. I have the same bug and am
unable to create a disk label.

Could I get a dump of the partition table, please? The output of 'sudo
od -tx1 -Ax -N512 /dev/sda' (or /dev/sdb, or whatever the device in
question is) should be sufficient.

The same problem affects syslinux too, sevearl hits in Google suggesting that
#1 it's a known issue for developers of both applications
#2 it affects large external USB disks e.g, iPods who are formatted with a
sector size > 512
#3 it's not trivially fixed

Can confirm, same error on Hardy, while trying to format an USB flash
drive. fdisk works correctly, while parted and gparted insist that the
drive has an "unrecognised disk label", and crash when trying to add
one.
