Thx for any help!

Please describe the problem:
gparted detects my root partition /dev/sda3 as linux-swap instead of reiserfs.
it then tries to swapon it and blocks me trying to resize the partition.

Steps to reproduce:
1. take my disk
2. start gparted
3. 


Actual results:


Expected results:
it should detect it as reiserfs

Does this happen every time?
yes

Model: ATA ST9100821AS (scsi)
Disk /dev/sda: 100GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: msdos

system:
fau-stud-033-054 mnt # uname -a
Linux fau-stud-033-054 2.6.29-gentoo #4 SMP PREEMPT Tue May 5 01:49:18 CEST
2009 i686 Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T7300 @ 2.00GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

I'm using gentoo, as seen in uname above. No live CD.
The partition gets swapon'd immediately and can't be swapoff'd since it's not a
swap partition.
