Error message from parted

[Dew-Hattens, Martin]

I have a couple of IA64 boxes with wich I am trying to do a systemimager 
restore from.

As far as I can tell the disk information is not being read properly due to an 
error in parted.



parted -s -- /dev/sda print

than what Parted can recognise.  Please tell us!  address@hidden


It works if I force it though:-
