When I used Parted-1.8.2<br>to print the partitions, It gave me the below error.<br><br>"No Implementation: Partition 1 isn't aligned to cylinder boundaries"<br><br>I have gone through the code and it seems like it sequentially checks for amiga, bsd....etc and ms-dos<br>disk labels. When probing for ms-dos, it matches the DOS PARTITION-MAGIC. But it also matches the pc98 when it<br>come across the below code in ms_dos_probe. pc98_probe in turn calls the read_table and there i got the above error.<br><br>#ifdef ENABLE_PC98<br> /* HACK: it's impossible to tell PC98 and msdos disk labels apart.<br> * Someone made the signatures the
same (very clever). Since<br> * PC98 has some idiosyncracies with it's boot-loader, it's detection<br> * is more reliable */<br> disk_type = ped_disk_type_get ("pc98");<br> if (disk_type && disk_type->ops->probe (dev))<br> return 0;<br>#endif /* ENABLE_PC98 */<br><br>When i commented out the above calls to pc98 probe in ms_dos_probe, it shows me the correct listing of the disk.<br>Is ms_dos and pc98 disk label are same ? <br><br>Can you please through some light on this.<br><br>Thanks,<br>Kamesh<br></div></div><br>
