> Going to investigate why parted is giving the wrong
information.
As parted works with more partitioning methods, a.k.a. "label types",
than (s)fdisk, and attempts to guess a partition type from what it
sees on a disk, it may turn out that the problem is "unfixable"
because of a clash with, say, a gpt handling code.
This is something that I have considered, but even if that is the case, parted
is still misbehaving IMO. might be that the heuristic it is using has not
considered a corner case. Will have to look at this closer.
