Re: Error when labeling a partition type when one does not already exist...

[VomLehn, David]

When you have a disk with no partition table and you use:

mkpart -s /dev/hda mklabel msdos

you get the message:

Error: SEGV_MAPERR (Address not mapped to object)Aborted

The attached patch fixes that problem.
