Bug still exists in general, but seems to have changed. Do something like lvcreate -L 40M -n dummy vg1
parted /dev/vg1/dummy mklabel msdos mkpart primary 1 2 mkpart primary 2 3 quit parted /dev/vg1/dummy rm 1 quit and you will get several error messages. However, the commands are executed, although the confirmation requests make it impossible to run them from a shell script. regards -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/611717 Title: parted fails to remove partitions from lvm disk To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/parted/+bug/611717/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
