Hello,

I always get this error message when I start parted:

    address@hidden ~]# LANG=C parted --list /dev/sda
    Error: Unable to satisfy all constraints on the partition.

    Model: ATA WDC WD2500BEVS-6 (scsi)
    Disk /dev/sdb: 250GB
    Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
    Partition Table: msdos

    Number  Start   End    Size   Type     File system  Flags
    1      32.3kB  250GB  250GB  primary  ntfs

gparted doesn't display any partition.

But I don't get an error message with fdisk:

    address@hidden ~]# LANG=C fdisk -l /dev/sda

    Disk /dev/sda: 250.0 GB, 250059350016 bytes

My gparted version is 0.4.3-1.fc10, the version of parted is 1.8.8-8.fc10
I also tried the gparted live cd version 0.3.7.7

Output of fdisk -l -u /dev/sda:

    address@hidden ~]# LANG=C fdisk -l -u /dev/sda

I think the last thing I did before it stopped working was "fix partition 
order" from fdisk.

Does anybody know what I should do to get gparted working again?

Thanks,
Lukas
