This bug was fixed in the package util-linux - 2.17.2-3.3ubuntu2 --------------- util-linux (2.17.2-3.3ubuntu2) natty; urgency=low
* sfdisk: pull upstream support for '+' to specify maximum size for a partition when using -N. (LP: #686124) * remaining changes: - Since udev is required in Ubuntu, the hwclock.sh init script is not called on startup and the hwclockfirst.sh init script is removed. - Use wildcards for symbols file, since they use versioned symbols properly. - Remove /etc/adjtime on upgrade if it was not used. - Install custom blkid.conf to use /dev/.blkid.tab since we don't expect device names to survive a reboot - No lsb_release call in mount.preinst since we'd need Pre-Depends (LP: #383697). - Do not install initramfs hook, since our initramfs already handles including blkid. - Mention mountall(8) in fstab(5) manpages, along with its special options. - For the case where mount is called with a directory to mount, look that directory up in mountall's /lib/init/fstab if we couldn't find it mentioned anywhere else. This means "mount /proc", "mount /sys", etc. work. - sfdisk support for '+' with '-N' (LP: #686124) -- Scott Moser <smo...@ubuntu.com> Tue, 04 Jan 2011 20:56:59 -0500 ** Changed in: util-linux (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/686124 Title: Add option to sfdisk to use maximum partition size -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
