I almost hijacked the latest thread for this but decide to create a new
one at the last moment

~From what I see most of the time someone ask for the output of fdisk for
additionnal information. Maybe adding that to the error message would be
a good idea and a time saving trick for everyone...

Adding something like, "email the output of fdisk as well as the
following message with any other information you may found pertinent
about that problem." would be good...
At the same time that will probably filter the ppl only submitting a bug
because it's written to send an email but they didn't give any other
explanation and thus only creating a useless flow of email (not that's
it's really a problem but just a tough)
