Hi, Sorry for this very late report. GParted before version 0.21.0 suffered from an off by one sector error when moving and copying partitions which corrupts data, although nobody seems to be noticing the impact. Affects: Fedora 21 (GParted 0.20.0) EL 6 (GParted 0.19.1) EPEL 7 (GParted 0.19.1) Does not affect: Fedora 22 (GParted 0.23.0) Fedora 23 (GParted 0.23.0) Recommend upgrading to the latest GParted 0.23.0. However just applying a patch will fix it too. Thanks, Mike Fleetwood (GParted Developer) Upstream bug report: GNOME Bug 742920 - GParted internal copy is overstepping partition boundaries https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=742920 Upstream commit: Fix off by one sector error in GParted internal block copy (#742920) https://git.gnome.org/browse/gparted/commit/?id=8a952cd4a9fea6d395c05f46d075aaf368011653
