CentOS 6 parted.sh just spins endlessly

Open jpforte opened this issue 6 years ago • 5 comments

it appears that stdin to part causes it to hang.

when I execute the command ./resize.sh /dev/sdb 1 the command hangs.

When I do

printf %sn 'unit MB print list' | parted

The cursor runs back and forth as if caught in a loop

Killing from another console kills it.

Yeah, nah, it's not going to work on centos 6. parted on centos 6 is of version 2.1 and it does not even have resizepart command.

@EugenMayer could you please clearly specify in readme what os flavours versions and what parted version you tested this with. Many thanks.

did so, but be aware, you could easily create a patch to have it compatible

"HINT: this script is compatible with parted v4+ OOTB, if you have parted 3, you need to change parted resizepart to parted resize" see https://serverfault.com/a/870595/281162

so if you would like to contribute and test this, would be lovely to have a PR about that

@EugenMayer The latest parted is 3.2 or are you talking about some different parted?

You right, 4.x was just completely confusion - corrected the minimal version (3.x) Thanks for pointing me at that
