Hi,
I'd like to use parted in a script to list primary and logical
partitions only (i.e., without extended partitions).
I do see the partition type if I use the following command:
# parted -s /dev/sdc print
Model: Generic STORAGE DEVICE (scsi)
Disk /dev/sdc: 3965MB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: msdos
Disk Flags:
Number Start End Size Type File system Flags
1 4194kB 71,3MB 67,1MB primary fat16 boot, lba
2 71,3MB 3965MB 3894MB extended lba
5 75,5MB 344MB 268MB logical
6 344MB 612MB 268MB logical
7 612MB 621MB 8388kB logical ext4
8 621MB 3965MB 3344MB logical ext4
However, if I run the same command with the --machine option, I get the
following output:
# parted -sm /dev/sdc print
BYT;
/dev/sdc:3965MB:scsi:512:512:msdos:Generic STORAGE DEVICE:;
1:4194kB:71,3MB:67,1MB:fat16::boot, lba;
2:71,3MB:3965MB:3894MB:::lba;
5:75,5MB:344MB:268MB:::;
6:344MB:612MB:268MB:::;
7:612MB:621MB:8388kB:ext4::;
8:621MB:3965MB:3344MB:ext4::;
where the partition type is missing. This is unfortunate :-\
