My recommendation would be to use GParted 0.6.2. This is because GParted 0.6.0 contains two serious bugs that have been fixed in version 0.6.2. The bugs present in GParted 0.6.0 are as follows: Bug 623630 - Move logical partition to right yields invalid partition table on /dev/sda -- wrong sign

Curtis: I haven't tried creating a new partition on the disk using gparted. The only partition in the disk was created with fdisk and then formatted with mkfs.vfat. This is the one I can't resize. I hope this helps. -- gparted doesn't support sector sizes > 512 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/405

Diego, are you able to create new partitions with the FAT32 file system, and then resize these new partitions? This answer would help to diagnose if the problem occurs for all FAT32 file systems on your disk device, or one specific file system. As a side note, GParted uses the libparted library t

I tested gparted 0.6.0 under ubuntu 10.04. It does recognize my 4096 byte/sector disk and allows to align to MB, however when attempting to write libparted 2.2 throws an error and stops detecting the device. I was trying to shrink a FAT32 (LBA) file system. I'm attaching gparted's log but doesn'

For those having this problem: I think partitioning should work correctly when using parted in "lucid" (Ubuntu 10.04). It's a commandline tool somewhat like fdisk or cfdisk, but AFAIK it will/can align partitions correctly. (And as Curtis explained, for GParted, this is still worked on.) -- gpa

Diego, at the moment no additional information is required, at least from my perspective. The problem with GParted crashing was avoided in version 0.5.1 by having GParted ignore devices with sector sizes > 512 bytes. See the following bug report for more details. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show

I have the same problem in Ubuntu 9.10. I was never able to use gparted while my external 4096 byte/sector usb drive was connected. I went ahead and made the desired partitions using fdisk. After backing up a lot of data in that drive, I found out my drive was performing real slow writing. I rea
