This bug was fixed in the package parted - 2.3-16ubuntu1 --------------- parted (2.3-16ubuntu1) saucy; urgency=low
[ Phillip Susi ] * debian/patches/avoid-disturbing-partitions.patch: remove all old partitions (that are not unchanged) first, then add new ones. This avoids an EBUSY trying to add new partitions that overlap with old ones that have a higher number (LP: #1220165). [ Colin Watson ] * Slight tweak to the above to continue to handle entirely unchanged partitions properly. -- Colin Watson <cjwat...@ubuntu.com> Mon, 14 Oct 2013 22:03:35 +0100 ** Changed in: parted (Ubuntu) Status: Fix Committed => 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/1220165 Title: Error informing the kernel about modificatons To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/parted/+bug/1220165/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
