If it's not an SL-specific problem (I'm sure it's not), they can refer it upstream, presumably RH. You could probably do it there yourself, https//bugzilla.redhat.com/ & report against the equivalent RHEL release, and mention in the description that it's actually scientific linux. I imagine they'll check it out, but not try very hard if they can't reproduce it:-) > > > > On Dec 19, 2007 7:01 PM, John Summerfield <[log in to unmask]> > wrote: > >> Nathan Moore wrote: >>> ---------- Forwarded message ---------- >>> From: Nathan Moore <[log in to unmask]> >>> Date: Dec 19, 2007 6:46 PM >>> Subject: Re: mkfs fails with large partitions >>> To: John Summerfield <[log in to unmask]> >>> >>> >>> Well, gnu "partition magic" cd (gnupartd) was able to format the >> partition >>> this afternoon.
