Product     : Fedora 13
Version     : 2.1
Release     : 5.fc13
URL         : http://www.gnu.org/software/parted
Summary     : The GNU disk partition manipulation program
Description :
The GNU Parted program allows you to create, destroy, resize, move,
and copy hard disk partitions. Parted can be used for creating space
for new operating systems, reorganizing disk usage, and copying data
to new hard disks.

Update Information:

This fixes a bug in parted, which causes anaconda to always overwrite (zero) the
first and last 9k of a disk (before writing  the partition table).
