Okay, so the problem is not due to an active LVM partition. Some testing has shown me that the patches to reenable BLKPG ioctls actually fix the problem of editing other unmounted partitions on a device with an active LVM partition.Curtis Gedak wrote:Jim Meyering wrote:... I just tried to add a couple partitions (in free space), and each time, I got this: $ sudo ./parted -s $dev u B mkpart F13-root $s2 $e2 Warning: WARNING: the kernel failed to re-read the partition table on /dev/sda (Device or resource busy). As a result, it may not reflect all of your changes until after reboot. I thought the intent was to avoid such warnings when they do not apply. The kernel was indeed notified of the creation of the two new partitions, and I was able to create file systems on them.Do you have an active LVM on a partition on the drive?Thanks, but no.
Was the command in your testing actually the following or was there a typo? $ sudo ./parted -s $dev u B mkpart F13-root $s2 $e2 If this was the command then what is a partition type of "F13-root"?
