Hi John, A similar answer from me: I no longer maintain util-linux - letter cc-ed to Adrian Bunk, current maintainer. Concerning disks without active partitions: sfdisk warns: warn(_("Warning: no primary partition is marked bootable (active)\n" "This does not matter for LILO, but the DOS MBR will " "not boot this disk.\n")); I agree that if other fdisk versions do not mutter in a similar way, it would be an improvement to make them do so.
I am going to add this to my TODO for our fdisk over libparted. I agree that it would be an improvment. Cheers Harley
