File: backtrace
# fdisk -l /dev/sdb Disk /dev/sdb: 4003 MB, 4003463168 bytes 84 heads, 20 sectors/track, 4654 cylinders, total 7819264 sectors Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Disk identifier: 0xc3072e18 Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System /dev/sdb1 * 8064 7819263 3905600 c W95 FAT32 (LBA) It could perhaps be caused by incorrect old partitioning, but I would expect livecd-iso-to-disk to do what was needed to make it work - and parted shouldn't coredump no matter what. Can also be reproduced with just # /sbin/parted /dev/sdb GNU Parted 2.3 Using /dev/sdb Welcome to GNU Parted! Type 'help' to view a list of commands. (parted) mklabel gpt Backtrace has 14 calls on stack: 14: /lib/libparted.so.0(ped_assert+0x2b) [0x4adbbb] 13: /lib/libparted.so.0() [0x4e491f] 12: /lib/libparted.so.0() [0x4e5607] 11: /lib/libparted.so.0() [0x4e7fe7] 10: /lib/libparted.so.0() [0x4b22f2] 9: /lib/libparted.so.0(ped_disk_add_partition+0x25b) [0x4b57cb] 8: /lib/libparted.so.0() [0x4e6f31] 7: /lib/libparted.so.0() [0x4e7540] 6: /lib/libparted.so.0(ped_disk_new+0x75) [0x4b5c95] 5: /sbin/parted() [0x804dae3] 4: /sbin/parted(interactive_mode+0x11a) [0x805599a] 3: /sbin/parted(main+0x190c) [0x805280c] 2: /lib/libc.so.6(__libc_start_main+0xe6) [0x5a0e36] 1: /sbin/parted() [0x804bb91] Aborted (core dumped) This happened because parted was trying to guess the CHS values for the USB stick. You can fix this by using dd to wipe out the existing parition table and re-partitioning it. I have a patch for this that I need to back-port to F14 soon. The key is this line from the abrt report: ped_assert (cond_text=0x504986 "head_size <= 63", file=0x50493e "dos.c", line=661, function=0x504cc9 "probe_partition_for_geom") at debug.c:112 Package: parted-2.3-7.fc15 Architecture: i686 OS Release: Fedora release 15 (Lovelock) Comment ----- f15 duplicate of 702654 I see the same crash on f15, so I guess the fix will be backported from somewhere else - and hopefully also to f15 ;-) Yes, it is in rawhide right now. After F15 release I'll back-port it. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 585468 *** Just stumbled upon this one again. A back-port to F14 would be nice ;-) |
