GNU Parted ---------- GNU Parted is a program for creating, destroying, resizing, checking and copying partitions, and the filesystems on them.
This is useful for creating space for new operating systems, reorganising disk usage, copying data between hard disks, and disk imaging.
If Parted is only going to be used for probing / discovery (and not "editing"), there is a --enable-discovery-only and --disable-fs (when you're only interested in partition tables).

 NewsForge | Resizing and defragmenting Linux filesystems
Parted refuses to work on XFS partitions, but this may change in the future.
Typically, you launch Parted in interactive mode by typing the program's name followed by the device on which you want to operate.
(GNU Parted and PartitionMagic are exceptions to this rule.) Precisely how you modify the filesystem's carrier partition depends on whether you'll be shrinking or growing the partition.

It is possible to use resize2fs and fdisk to do this but GNU parted makes it much less prone to error.
Run parted to shrink the root partition Do this so there is room on the disk for a complete copy of it in a logical volume.
Parted doesn't understand LVM 1 partitions so this has to be done using fdisk.

Hello, We are contemplating moving to parted 1.6.x (x>12) as the parted version used for sarge, since it provides a better solution to the infamous 2.6 kernel CHS disaster, more info on this can be found here : http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=108594754632501&w=2 And maybe other places.
I suppose that the xfs signature is still present on the partition, and that thus parted recognize it since it checks xfs before ext3 partitions.
Parted also can not read this disk and complains for unaligned partitions even when used on an empty disk.
