#3 Currently I am adding the nessesary code to handle this type of situation
The order of things right now are when parted is first started read the disk
then using a nice function named ped_disk_duplicate(thanks Clausen :) make a
copy then edit the copy threw out the rest of the time. Then if the user feels
bad about his/her changes then they can execute an undo/restore and the copy
gets dumped and the original disk struct gets used. Also if you never do a
commit and just quit then your changes are not written to disk. Thanks
